On this crisp December 20, 2025 morning, the Mega Millions dust has settled from last night’s $90 million ($40.8M cash) jackpot draw… and it’s still up for grabs! No ticket matched all five white balls (1, 11, 27, 39, 59) plus the Mega Ball (18). Congrats to the 2nd-prize winners snagging $1M+ (five white balls only), but the big prize rolls over to Tuesday, December 23 at 11 p.m. ET – now an estimated $128 million ($58.2M cash option). Fingers crossed for holiday windfalls!
