How to view your results on Swisher Post
At Swisher Post, we understand how frustrating the wait for the results is. That is why we will always strive to ensure that the results are updated as soon as they are broadcast.
The National Lottery often interrupts the broadcast on E-tv, every day at 21:00 to either announce the Lotto and Lotto Plus, Daily Lotto or Powerball results.
Powerball winning numbers are announced every Tuesday and Friday.
National Lottery total payout in 2019
While the chances of winning the Lottery are dependent on the alignment of the stars, your chakras, and basically a level of luck that is hard to come by, it is not improbable.
According to the National Lottery, a total of R2.5-billion “has been won across all games in 2019″. Therefore, participating in the game is not unadvised.
However, gambling can be addictive and players who feel pressured to spend in excess of their affordability are encouraged to seek help. We encourage gamblers who want out to contact the Twin Rivers Rehabilitation Centre. After all, losing out on winnings is not worth losing one’s self, let alone their loved ones.
