Campaign Legal Center Responds to Elon Musk's $1 Million 'Giveaway' [1]

[]

Date: 2024-10

In response to Elon Musk's announcement that he will be giving away $1 million each day to registered voters in key battleground states, Adav Noti — the nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center's executive director — issued the following statement:



"Elon Musk’s behavior is just the latest — and most egregious — example of wealthy special interests distorting our political process at the expense of everyday voters. It is extremely problematic that the world’s richest man can throw his money around in an attempt to directly influence the outcome of this election. This is not how our democracy should work.



It is illegal to buy votes, it is illegal to buy voter registration, and the Department of Justice has the power to enforce these important laws through civil or criminal action."
