Judge sets hearing on $1M-a-day sweepstakes from Elon Musk PAC
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A Philadelphia judge has set a hearing Thursday morning in the city prosecutor’s bid to shut down Elon Musk’s $1 million-a-day sweepstakes in battleground states. The giveaways come from Musk’s political organization, which aims to boost Donald Trump’s presidential campaign through Election Day.
Democratic District Attorney Larry Krasner hopes to stop the America PAC sweepstakes. Judge Angelo Foglietta will hear motions on the issue in a City Hall courtroom. Philadelphia lawyer Matthew Haverstick wouldn’t say late Wednesday if Musk will attend the hearing.
