One lucky person has just won the Mega Millions jackpot.

On Dec. 2, just weeks after someone in Georgia won the $983 million Mega Millions jackpot, the eighth-highest jackpot in the game's history, another lucky ticket sold in New Jersey matched all six of the numbers drawn and won the $90 million jackpot. The winner may choose a one-time cash payment of $41.9 million.

After just five drawings, the win marked the shortest jackpot run since August 2023, when a lucky person in Florida won $39 million jackpot two drawings after a record-breaking $1.602 billion jackpot was won in the same state, according to a Mega Millions news release.

In 2025, a total of six jackpots have been won. Most recently, in November, one lucky person from Georgia won the $983 million jackpot.
