The $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes that Elon Musk ‘s political action committee is hosting in swing states can continue through Tuesday�s presidential election, a Pennsylvania judge ruled Monday. Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta � ruling after Musk�s lawyers said the winners are paid spokespeople and not chosen by chance � did not immediately explain his reasoning.

District Attorney Larry Krasner, a Democrat, had called the process a scam �designed to actually influence a national election� and asked that it be shut down. Musk lawyer Chris Gober said the final two recipients before Tuesday’s presidential election will be in Arizona on Monday and Michigan on Tuesday.

�The $1 million recipients are not chosen by chance,” Gober said Monday. �We know exactly who will be announced as the $1 million recipient today and tomorrow.�

Chris Young, the director and treasurer of America PAC, testified that the recipients are vetted ahead of time, to �feel out their personality, (and) make sure they were someone whose values aligned� with the group.
