Judge Approves Musk's $1M Voter Giveaway Amid Legal Scrutiny
TL;DR Summary
A judge has ruled that Elon Musk's America PAC can continue awarding $1 million to voters in swing states, despite allegations of it being an illegal lottery. The recipients are not chosen randomly but are selected by the group, with the final recipient already determined. Philadelphia District Attorney Lawrence Krasner had sued to stop the giveaway, citing potential election law violations. Musk's PAC has been actively campaigning for Donald Trump, and recipients must align with the group's values and serve as spokespeople.
