A Pennsylvania judge ruled Monday that Elon Musk’s daily $1 million giveaway to voters can continue, in a victory for the tech billionaire and Donald Trump ally.
Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge Angelo Foglietta rejected arguments from the city’s district attorney, Larry Krasner, who argued that the sweepstakes was an illegal lottery violating state law and must be halted immediately.
The ruling came shortly after an all-day hearing in a packed courtroom in downtown Philadelphia. The hearing was heated at times, with Krasner’s team calling Musk’s political team “shysters” who are running a “scam” and “grift” – and Musk’s team accusing the district attorney of pursuing a “dreadful violation of constitutional rights.”
Doesn’t it seem strange that giving someone waiting to vote a bottle of water is a crime, but giving them money isn’t?
Do you really not see how they’re related?
Yeah, I understand that.
However, I don’t think that this ever required anyone to actually vote and the people aren’t random when picked. Hell, they even argue that the money is actually payment for the “winner” to speak publicly. Is it all a load of crap? Maybe,… I’ve never trusted a billionaire for anything.
You disingenuous coward. You think people are stupid enough to not see through the facade of an apologist posts like yours?
You’re one of those “temporarily embarrassed millionaires”, huh?
Cool story, bro.
“I told’em Mr. elon, sir, really I did, they just weren’t appreciative of you, Mr. Sir, but I told 'em all the truth, because we’re the same you and I. I knew we’d be together one day and you’d be so proud of me”
