Sens. Peter Welch and Richard Blumenthal expressed their concerns in a letter to AG Merrick Garland, stating that Musk's reward scheme may violate federal campaign finance law.
The senators emphasized that Musk's giveaway, aimed at registered voters, seems designed to induce voter registration, which they argue is akin to vote buying.
Welch and Blumenthal highlighted the serious implications of Musk's actions, stating, 'There is no place for vote buying in our democracy,' calling for potential prosecution.
Musk's ongoing financial support for Trump and other Republican candidates, totaling over $130 million, raises further ethical questions about the influence of wealth on political processes.
