Judge Allows Elon Musk's $1 Million Voter Giveaway to Continue Amid Legal Challenges
A Pennsylvania judge ruled that the controversial giveaway, criticized for deceptive practices, can proceed as Musk's lawyers argue winners were preselected as spokespeople.
- Elon Musk's $1 million daily giveaway has faced legal scrutiny for allegedly not being a random lottery, as initially claimed.
- Musk's lawyer admitted in court that winners were preselected based on their suitability to be spokespeople for America PAC, not chosen at random.
- Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner called the giveaway a 'scam' and argued it violated Pennsylvania's lottery laws, but the judge denied an injunction to halt it.
- Legal experts suggest the giveaway could have implications under consumer protection laws, though enforcement actions remain uncertain.
- The Justice Department has warned Musk's America PAC about potential violations of federal election laws, but no formal action has been taken yet.
