Ahead of Tuesday's US Presidential Election, Mr. Musk's daily campaign to give millions of dollars to voters escaped a legal challenge from the Philadelphia district attorney after a judge in Pennsylvania, the crucial swing state, refused to block it. A Pennsylvania judge rejected a request by the district attorney to stop the contest, which he called an illegal lottery. Mr. Musk's lawyer said at the hearing that the winners of the contest were not picked at random. Winners were chosen based on whether they were "fit" to be public spokespeople for Mr. Musk's political action committees, often based on their personal stories. The judge ruled soon after, without any argument.
