Elon Musk’s political action committee faces legal scrutiny over a $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes in swing states.
Lawyer Chris Gober clarified in court that recipients were selected as “spokespeople” based on personal stories, not by chance.
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner argued that the selection process contradicts Musk’s earlier promises.
The DA believes the PAC misled participants by using the terms “chance” and “randomly.”
Treasurer Chris Young admitted he knew winners ahead of time but was surprised by Musk’s wording.
A court ruling on whether the giveaways break election law is still pending.
