Was walking past the lottery kiosk while exiting the store and noticed something: when's the last time we saw jackpots over $100 million? We got so used to these $300+ million Powerball and MegaMillions jackpots and I've realized that they've not cracked $100 million in at least a month now. If the people are walking away from buying lottery tickets even then it's an indication of something.

You're off base. Both of them were up to huge jackpots recently. Once someone wins, they reset and have to build back up.
But I've been watching this for the last couple of years. These large lottery payouts are nearly always won in blue states.
Considering how Epstein's trust won Powerball not once, but twice, you can bet your life they're rigged by the deep state.
What date? They've been this low for almost a month now and building up much slower than before.
A $700m Powerball jackpot was won on October 3rd.
Megamillions peaked probably 6-7 weeks ago.
All that info is on their website. They always reset to around $25m and then slowly build back up.
They build exponentially so, the higher they go, the larger the increase between drawings. When they reset, the build up is slow at first but gathers steam as the amount moves up and more people are enticed to play.
The powerball and mega million were up over 700 million just a couple weeks ago I know someone in California won one of them I don't remember who won the other, I don't pay much attention.
The lottery goes up by 10million every time it doesn't go out. I know this because I sell these tickets.
Yep I think it's all about laundering money.
Think the other was New Jersey.
Probably I can always tell when it's about to go out, we get a lot of small winners under 25 dollars usually. That alone tells me it's rigged if it were truly random I would see these small winners all the time, right before it's about to go out there are five or six winners on my shift, I sometimes have that many in three days, almost never on a single shift. I work ten hour days.
I'll say this knowing I would never do this. But you should tabulate what days and how many winners and what amount. Would be an interesting data point.
I might, when I count my till at the end of the night we have to count the lottery last night I had zero cash paid out.
People always buy more tickets then the jackpot is high I've been working in a convenience store for four years now, sales will be lower until it gets up over a 100million, just my regulars buying right now, when it gets up there I see a lot more people coming in just for tickets. I don't think that there's anything out of the ordinary happening with tickets just the normal ebb happening after the big ones go out. What will be telling is when the pots get up there.
Yeah it usually goes up that much but for the last couple weeks it seems fairly stalled.
The powerball is nationwide but I just brought up the ND powerball page since I'm in ND.
This shows the jackpot going up. It just went out the beginning of October, it looks like it's going up by about fluctuates from anywhere between 6 and 12 million like I said I don't pay all that much attention to it. but it's definitely increasing.
