Is Elon Musk’s million-a-day lottery to encourage voters even legal?

Elon Musk recently set up a $1 million-a-day lottery for a randomly chosen signatory of a petition from a key state.

This initiative is aimed exclusively at voters in one of the 7 key states where the election will be held.

However, many experts believe that Musk may have broken the law, which could result in a five-year prison sentence.

Elon Musk presented the first giant check to a delighted participant at a Town Hall in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in October.

The problem for Musk is that he’s offering this contest to people who sign a petition, but to be eligible, participants must be on the electoral rolls.

But in the United States, it’s illegal to hand out money in trade for voter registration, which could pose a serious problem for Elon Musk.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro has called for an investigation into Elon Musk, describing his practice as “deeply concerning”.

Elon Musk has reportedly received a letter from the DOJ informing him of the potentially illegal nature of his lottery, as well as possible financial penalties in addition to possible jail time.

Since he reportedly received the letter, no winners were announced in the first few days. However, Musk has resumed distribution of the controversial prizes.
