BROOKSVILLE, Fla. — A Hernando County woman won $900,000 from the Jackpot Triple Play drawing on Dec. 20, 2024.

The Florida Lottery said Lenora Carpenter purchased a Jackpot Triple Play Quick Pick ticket from Publix at 19390 Cortez Boulevard in Brooksville. Carpenter chose to receive her earnings in a lump sum of $534,009.60.

Publix will receive a $1,000 commission for selling the winning ticket.

Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
