Elon Musk continues to announce $1 million daily winners

After a few days of non-activity, the website for Elon Musk’s PAC is again announcing $1 million daily winners.

A letter from the U.S. Department of Justice to America PAC warned that its giveaway in battleground states to swing voters could be illegal. The letter indicated the prize money could violate federal law against offering incentives such as cash or prizes to induce voter registration.

Musk has pledged to give away $1 million per day to voters for signing a petition supporting the First and Second amendments.

Musk’s PAC stopped posting winners on its website Wednesday and Thursday. But its website now has seven winners listed.

The giveaways began a week ago, and there have been two Western Pennsylvania winners so far. Petition signers are selected from Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin or North Carolina, according to the petition’s website.

Marie from Pahrump, Nevada received $1M for signing our petition to support the Constitution.

Every day until Election Day, a person who signs will be selected to earn $1M as a spokesperson for America PAC.

Shannon Tomei of McKees Rocks was gifted a giant check in person as Monday’s winner, according to America PAC on the social media platform X. She declined to comment on Tuesday.

Those who sign the petition will receive $100, and people who refer a petition signer get $100 as well, according to the petition’s website. They are also entered into the daily lottery to win $1 million.

News of the giveaway raised legal concerns from experts and Gov. Josh Shapiro.

“I think there are real questions with how he is spending money in this race, how the dark money is flowing, not just into Pennsylvania, but apparently now into the pockets of Pennsylvanians,” he told NBC. “That is deeply concerning.”
