Elon Musk's political action committee, America PAC, is facing legal scrutiny over its $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes, which a lawyer claims does not randomly select winners but chooses them as paid 'spokespeople.' The hearing, held before the presidential election, featured District Attorney Larry Krasner labeling the lottery a scam and illegal under Pennsylvania law, arguing it collects voters' information without clear privacy policies. Musk's lawyer, Chris Gober, asserted that recipients are selected based on personal stories and must sign contracts, emphasizing that the sweepstakes aims to support Donald Trump's campaign. Krasner countered that this arrangement constitutes an illegal lottery, as it misleads participants about the nature of the selection process. The contest, limited to states pivotal for the election, has awarded 18 prizes thus far and is set to conclude on election day. The case underscores ongoing controversies surrounding campaign financing and voter engagement tactics.
