Elon Musk claimed that the $1 million checks he has been handing out in Wisconsin ahead of the state's Supreme Court are not meant to sway voters' mind, court records show.
Concretely, his attorneys, answering to a last-minute legal challenge to his initiative, said he was exercising his free speech rights and that the payments seek to "generate a grassroots movement in opposition to activist judges, not to expressly advocate for or against any candidate." Any attempts to challenge the initiative, they said, would violate both the Wisconsin and U.S. constitutions.
