Elon Musk Gives $10 Million to Super PAC Backing Nate Morris in Kentucky Senate Race

The unprecedented super PAC donation signals Musk’s renewed investment in 2026 Republican campaigns.

Overview

  • Musk’s $10 million gift to the Fight for Kentucky super PAC, made last week, is his largest single contribution to a Senate candidate.
  • Nate Morris effectively confirmed the news by reposting praise about the donation on X within hours of the reports.
  • Independent and campaign-commissioned polling still show Rep. Andy Barr and former Attorney General Daniel Cameron as leading contenders, and President Donald Trump has not endorsed a candidate.
  • The infusion gives Morris—a pro‑Trump, anti‑McConnell outsider and Rubicon founder—significant new resources for advertising and field efforts ahead of the May 19 GOP primary.
  • The move follows Musk’s recent support for GOP House and Senate super PACs and interactions with party figures, underscoring expectations that he will spend heavily for Republicans in 2026.
