One Maryland winner is a special education teacher, one is an elementary school teacher and the third is a school administrator. All three said they plan to continue to work, noting that they were committed to their students, Martino said.
"One said 'I can't give up on my kids," he said.
The winners had watched the news coverage over the last week - including stories about a Baltimore woman who claimed initially to have the ticket, then said she had lost it - and joked with each other, knowing that they had the winning ticket, Martino said. He said the woman who was in the news last week is not a winner. Calls by the Associated Press on Tuesday to the woman, Mirlande Wilson, and her lawyer were not immediately returned.
I think not at this point.

Rick Santorum has thrown in the towel by saying he is "suspending" his campaign. I think candidates do that because of the campaign funds or whatever.
He has for all intents and purposes quit the race.
