Tesla founder and X CEO Elon Musk announced Saturday that he will hand out $1 million daily in a lottery for registered voters in battleground states up until Nov. 5, prompting harsh criticism from critics who say the move appears to clearly violate federal law.
“I have a surprise for you. We are going to be awarding $1 million to people who have signed the petition — every day, from now until the election,” Musk told a crowd in Pennsylvania. He then handed the first daily lottery winner a check for $1 million.
