GEORGIA — The Powerball jackpot just keeps getting bigger.It's expected to reach a near record-breaking $1.5 billion after no one won Wednesday's jackpot. But two winners in Georgia did walk away with a million bucks, including one person who bought their ticket through the Georgia Lottery's mobile app.'It's got to be so exciting because they receive notification right after that they've won a prize,' said Georgia Lottery CEO Gretchen Corbin.Corbin says the lottery does not put the $1 million directly into the player's online account.
