DOJ Warns Musk's America PAC Over Daily $1 Million Giveaway to Swing State Voters
Oct 23, 2024, 07:47 PM
The U.S. Department of Justice has warned Elon Musk's America PAC that its daily $1 million giveaway to registered voters in swing states may violate federal law, according to sources familiar with the matter. The DOJ sent a letter expressing concerns that the sweepstakes, which offers a $1 million prize each day to voters who sign the PAC's petition, could contravene statutes prohibiting individuals or entities from offering incentives to encourage voter registration or turnout. The America PAC, founded by Musk, has been conducting this promotion in key battleground states. Legal experts indicate that offering monetary prizes in exchange for voter registration may be considered unlawful under federal election regulations. The DOJ's election crimes unit, led by Robert Heberle, is reportedly involved in reviewing the PAC's activities. The move underscores the heightened scrutiny of election-related initiatives ahead of the upcoming elections.
