Elon Musk's $1 Million Voter Giveaway Lawsuit Returns to State Court

A federal judge ruled against Musk's attempt to move the case to federal court, allowing Pennsylvania to proceed with its challenge.

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner filed a lawsuit against Musk's America PAC, claiming the giveaway constitutes an illegal lottery under state law.
U.S. District Judge Gerald Pappert decided the case should remain in state court, dismissing arguments that it involved federal election interference.
Musk's America PAC has awarded $1 million prizes to 14 registered voters in key swing states, with plans to continue until Election Day.
The Department of Justice warned that the giveaway might violate federal laws, but no federal charges have been filed.
The legal proceedings are unlikely to halt the giveaways before the upcoming presidential election, as the case is now back in state court.
