Elon Musk was sued in a proposed class action on Tuesday by registered voters
who signed his petition to support the constitution for a chance to win his
$1m-a-day giveaway, and now claim it was a fraud.
The complaint, filed by the Arizona resident Jacqueline McAferty in federal
court, said Musk and his America Pac organization falsely induced voters to sign
a petition by claiming they would choose winners by chance. In fact, members of
the Pac selected the winners, the suit alleges. Musk’s own attorneys said in
court that the sweepstakes’ results were not random; they disclosed that the
winners were chosen to be spokespeople for the group.
When will we know the result?

Musk opted not to show up to a required court appearance Thursday in
Philadelphia to respond to a lawsuit challenging his political action
committee’s daily $1m voter giveaway. Meanwhile, online, he has started a
dedicated community space on X, formerly Twitter, where he’s asked users to
share any issues they see while voting. Users posting on the self-contained
feed, the “election integrity community”, quickly began pointing out what they
deemed as evidence of fraud and election interference.

in the event of a Trump victory
After the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, America’s business leaders came
out strongly in their criticism of Donald Trump. Now – as the Harris campaign
brands Trump a “fascist” and Trump threatens retribution against “the enemy
within” – there appears to be a conspiracy of silence.
In fact, as the nation heads to the polls in an election that is too close to
call, some of America’s most powerful chief executive appear to be cozying up to
Trump again.
