Wisconsin (WI) Lottery Results - Winning Numbers for December 19, 2025

No, Wisconsin (WI) lottery winners cannot remain completely anonymous. Under Wisconsin’s public records law, the Wisconsin Lottery must release a winner’s name, the city of residence, the prize amount, and the game won. This information becomes public once a prize is claimed.

However, there is a limited exception for winners of prizes over $600 who claim through a legal trust or limited liability company (LLC). While the trust or LLC’s name may appear on the public record, the individual winner’s personal name can remain private.

Wisconsin Lottery officials recommend consulting an attorney or financial advisor before claiming a large prize if you wish to protect your privacy through a trust or entity.

In summary: Wisconsin lottery winners’ identities are generally public, but using a legal entity can help maintain a degree of anonymity.

In Wisconsin, the lottery game with the best odds is generally scratch tickets—especially lower-price tickets and “top prize still available” options—because scratch-offs usually offer much better overall chances of winning some prize than draw games.

Best odds among Wisconsin draw games (typical)

If you’re comparing Wisconsin’s main draw options, games with smaller matrices and more frequent drawings usually offer better chances to win a prize than multi-state jackpots.

• Badger 5 - best overall draw-game odds in Wisconsin in most cases
• Pick 3 - good odds depending on play type
• Pick 4 - good odds depending on play type
• All or Nothing - often strong “any prize” odds vs. big jackpots

Multi-state games, like Powerball and Mega Millions, available in Wisconsin typically have much longer odds of hitting the jackpot.

What “best odds” usually means (and how to choose)

“Best odds” can mean different things, so it helps to decide what you’re optimizing for:

• Best odds to win any prize: usually scratch tickets; among draw games, typically Badger 5 and some play types in Pick 3/Pick 4.
• Best odds to win the jackpot: usually still better in smaller in-state games (like Badger 5) than in Powerball or Mega Millions—but the jackpots are smaller.
• Best value/strategy: check current prize structures and recent results, then pick games where you prefer the risk/reward tradeoff.
