Dan Mangan , CNBC; Philadelphia DA sues Elon Musk PAC to stop $1 million lottery for voters
"The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office on Monday filed a lawsuit seeking to stop Elon Musk and his political action committee from awarding $1 million to registered voters in swing states, accusing them of “running an illegal lottery.”
The lawsuit by DA Larry Krasner, which accuses Musk and his America PAC of trying to influence voters in the presidential election, comes days after the U.S. Department of Justice warned America PAC that its $1 million daily sweepstakes might violate federal election law.
Krasner’s suit lawsuit names both the Tesla CEO Musk and America PAC as defendants."
