A Pennsylvania Judge has ruled Elon Musk’s America PAC can proceed to continue its $1 million-a-day giveaway contest through November 5.

Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta ruled against Philadephia’s district attorney, Larry Krasner, who claimed that Musk’s sweepstakes was an illegal lottery grift that violates state law.

The America PAC founded by Musk gives $1 million away to selected voters in swing states who sign a pledge to support the Constitution.

Foglietta argued that the PAC’s giveaway was “a political marketing masquerading as a lottery.”

Attorney Chris Gober, who represented Musk’s America PAC, argued, “The $1 million recipients are not chosen by chance; we know exactly who will be announced as the $1 million recipient today and tomorrow.”

Here’s what Fox News reported:

A Pennsylvania judge is allowing Elon Musk’s America PAC to continue its $1 million a day contest through Nov. 5, according to a ruling on Monday.

The ruling by Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta came hours after Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner’s testimony against America PAC on Monday. Kramer argued that the “sweepstakes” violates election laws and that it should be shut down.

Appearing as a witness on Monday, Krasner called the contest “a grift.”

“This was all a political marketing masquerading as a lottery,” the district attorney said.

Earlier that day, it was revealed that the winners of America PAC’s giveaway are not randomly selected. The effort, which asks voters in swing states to sign a petition to potentially win $1 million, appears to be more of a contest.

Attorney Chris Gober said on Monday that the winners of the giveaway were picked based on personal stories that they shared, and that they all signed nondisclosure agreements.

“The $1 million recipients are not chosen by chance,” America PAC attorney Chris Gober said in court on Monday. “We know exactly who will be announced as the $1 million recipient today and tomorrow.”

America PAC’s contest involves giving $1 million to one swing state voter per day until Election Day. The initiative was announced by Musk in October, who described it as a random sweepstakes at a rally for former President Trump on Oct. 19.

Per CNN:

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.”

Krasner, a progressive Democrat, filed the lawsuit one week ago. The daily giveaways from Musk’s pro-Trump super PAC continued as the issue worked its way through the courts – despite Krasner’s lawsuit and a Justice Department warning that the cash prizes might also violate federal election laws.

Musk and his lawyers have called Krasner’s lawsuit a “publicity stunt” and accused him of bringing the case because he disagrees with Musk’s advocacy in support of Trump.

In court Monday, Musk’s lawayers said the super PAC isn’t picking winners “by chance.”

“There is no prize to be won,” Musk lawyer Chris Gober said, and the winners “are not chosen by chance.”
