Challenging Musk Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner filed a lawsuit to halt Elon Musk's $1 million giveaway to swing state voters. The suit accuses the tech billionaire and his America PAC supporting former President Donald Trump's candidacy of "running an illegal lottery."
The case is based on Pennsylvania's lottery and consumer protection laws. Krasner, a Democrat, clarified in the complaint that it was not about state and federal laws that prohibit vote-buying. Specifically, the district attorney alleged that Musk failed to meet Pennsylvania's requirements for lottery operators, which mandate publishing a "complete set of lottery rules" and detailing measures to protect participants' personal information. He also raised concerns that the selection of winners may have been rigged.
The lawsuit comes after Musk announced the eighth winner of his super PAC's $1 million prize in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and doubled down on his pledge to give out awards to registered voters in seven battleground states every day until Election Day. (Full Story) | |

Earlier this month, two U.S. lawmakers issued a letter urging the Japanese government to restrict Japanese companies from selling semiconductor chip-making equipment to China.
