Musk’s $1 Million Daily Prize for Registered Voters Faces Legal Scrutiny. At a campaign event for Donald Trump in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Elon Musk announced he will give away $1 million daily to registered voters in key battleground states raising concerns from election law experts. Musk aims to gather support for a petition backing the First and Second Amendments with his political action committee limiting the sweepstakes to registered voters in states like Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro called the initiative “deeply concerning” and suggested law enforcement may need to investigate. Federal law prohibits offering payments in exchange for voter registration or voting, carrying a penalty of up to five years in prison. Derek Muller, an election law professor at Notre Dame, warns that offering prizes exclusively to registered voters might be seen as a violation of federal laws against voter inducement.
