During the final stretch of the 2024 presidential race, Musk’s super PAC started a daily $1 million giveaway to registered voters in battleground states, while Musk was urging voters to support Donald Trump. After the election, voters in a handful of battleground states filed proposed class-action civil fraud lawsuits against Musk and his political group, America PAC, which both deny wrongdoing. The voters claimed Musk duped them into believing that they’d have a fair shot at the money if they signed up for the sweepstakes — which included turning over their private data to his political organization. (https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/20/politics/elon-musk-voter-giveaway-legal-questions/index.html) Musk had publicly stated that the payouts would be given away “randomly” to registered voters. But his lawyers later (https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-harris-election-11-04-24#cm337lidm00053b6smlfzkqcs) conceded in court that winners were “not chosen by chance” but rather were picked based on whether they would be a strong spokesperson for the pro-Trump super PAC.

This year, Musk has (https://www.cnn.com/2026/10/12/politics/elon-musk-midterm-spending-276-million) reprised his role as a Republican megadonor — with at least $276 million in donations to GOP candidates for the midterm elections.

The Justice Department (https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/23/politics/elon-musk-justice-department-letter) warned Musk back in 2024 that the million-dollar giveaways could violate longstanding federal laws against vote-buying. The Philadelphia District Attorney (https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/28/politics/elon-musk-philadelphia-lawsuit) filed a lawsuit to shut down the sweepstakes while it was still happening, but a state judge (https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/04/politics/elon-musk-1-million-giveaway) ruled on the eve of Election Day that it could proceed. The bipartisan Wisconsin Election Commission (https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/14/politics/elon-musk-wisconsin-supreme-court-1-million-checks) concluded earlier this year that Musk likely broke state law with similar cash giveaways in a 2025 state judicial race. But prosecutors (https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-wisconsin-election-bribery-8b397114905a0ac5f4bf3437b5693425) declined to bring charges because, they said, the evidence was too weak to secure a bribery conviction.
