Elon Musk's giveaway of $1 million a day to Pennsylvania voters who sign his petition supporting Trump has raised legal concerns. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro suggested it could be an attempt to buy votes, while legal scholar Rick Hasen deemed the scheme illegal. Hasen pointed to federal laws on buying votes and argued that Musk's offer could be seen as a bribe. The billionaire's use of substantial funds to influence the election has sparked further scrutiny.
