Elon Musk Deletes Tweet Promising to Hand Out ‘Two Checks For a Million Dollars’ At Campaign Event As He’s Accused of ‘Blatant Felony’

What Happened: Musk deleted a tweet promising to personally give $1 million checks to two voters at a Wisconsin Supreme Court campaign event. After public backlash, Musk clarified the money would go to “spokesmen” for his anti-judge petition—not to voters. Critics say his original post was a blatant attempt to buy votes.

Why It Matters: Offering money in exchange for voting is a felony under Wisconsin law. State Attorney General Josh Kaul said he plans legal action to block Musk’s giveaway. Musk’s group had already paid a Green Bay voter $1 million and offered smaller sums for petition signers and referrals.
