The billionaire who has been stumping for former President Donald Trump is now offering a prize to people who sign his super PAC's petition.

Legal experts question the billionaire’s plan to hand out huge payments in battleground states as part of a get-out-the-vote drive.

While stumping for former President Donald Trump on Saturday, tech billionaire Elon Musk announced that he will give away $1 million each day to registered voters in battleground states, immediately drawing scrutiny from election law experts who said the sweepstakes could violate laws against paying people to register.

HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Pennsylvania's Democratic governor, Josh Shapiro, on Sunday called on law enforcement to investigate billionaire Elon Musk for his promise at a weekend pro-Trump rally to give away $1 million each day until Election Day.

Musk's cash rewards to registered voters in swing states has ignited a legal debate over potential violations of federal laws.

Elon Musk’s pledge that his pro-Trump America PAC would award $1 million every day to someone who signs his petition until Election Day drew scrutiny from Pennsylvania Gov. Shapiro.

I think there are real questions with how he is spending money in this race," the governor of Pennsylvania said.

The giveaway is raising questions and alarms among some election experts who say it is a violation of the law to link a cash handout to signing a petition that also requires a person to be registered to vote.
