YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Justice Department has warned Elon Musk's "America PAC" that its one-million-dollar sweepstakes targeting registered voters in swing states may violate federal law.
Musk, who has backed former President Donald Trump and is spending millions to support his candidacy, has promoted the one-million-dollar prize his political action committee is offering to increase voter registrations in key states. Musk's initial promise to pay prizes to registered voters immediately raised concerns from election law experts and some state officials.
Federal law prohibits paying people to register to vote. The petition's language currently promises million-dollar prizes to people chosen randomly for signing a petition supporting "First and Second Amendment freedoms." However, to sign the petition, individuals must be registered to vote in specific states.
