On the one hand, some see it as a simple communication stunt to attract attention and reiterate support for fundamental civil rights. On the other, we detect tacit support for the former president and current candidate in the election, accused of being a purchase of electoral influence.
A draw, really?
In any case, the question of the legality of this action arose. And the Philadelphia city attorney, Larry Krasner, did not hesitate to sue Elon Musk to remove doubt.
And the result fell: Judge Angelo Foglietta, in Pennsylvania, gave the green light for the continuation of this drawing. And the reason is that in reality, it is not a random draw in the strict sense: the “winners” are selected in advance, not for their luck, but for their compatibility with the values of the Super PAC , according to information from the American media CNBC. Before receiving the sum, they signed a paid contract. “We know exactly who will be announced as a beneficiary today and tomorrow”explains one of Elon Musk’s lawyers.
gull“It is what it is. A scam.”
In other words, the lucky ones are not at all chosen “by chance”, as the billionaire mentioned.

This defense was, however, contested by Democratic prosecutor Larry Krasner, who did not hesitate to describe this campaign as a “political scam”, masked under the appearance of a lottery. “It is what it is. A scam.” According to him, all this is manipulation of opinion with the aim of influencing the choice of voters.
If this revelation lifts the veil on the legality of the process, it completely destroys Elon Musk’s argument that the Super PAC is a lottery.
