“Elon Musk is trying to boost the number of swing-state voters by paying people to sign a petition saying they will support free speech and the Second Amendment,” Washington Examiner writes.
From The Economic Times:
Federal law prohibits payment for registering to vote or voting in federal elections. However, it does allow financial incentives for petition signing.
“Oh my gosh. This could fund staffers across Pennsylvania to register even more voters,” Scott Presler wrote.

The petition requests that signers provide their first and last name, email address, cell phone number, and mailing address.
The petition asks if someone referred you.
Signers would provide the email or cell phone number of the registered voter who referred them.
The Elon Musk-founded PAC is also hiring people to increase voter turnout.
Per Fox News:
Tech billionaire Elon Musk’s political action committee is offering starting wages of $30 an hour to individuals seeking to increase voter registration and turnout, the PAC’s website shows.
“JOIN OUR TEAM,” Musk-founded America PAC reads on its website. “Email us if you are interested in working on increasing voter registration and voter turnout. Pay starts at $30 per hour, with bonuses for performance.”
Musk endorsed former President Trump earlier this summer as the 45th president seeks to again win the Oval Office. The Tesla founder joined Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday evening as Trump made a historic return to the town following an assassination attempt that left him bloodied and injured on July 13 during a rally.
“I think it’s the most important election of our lifetime. This is no ordinary election. The other side wants to take away your freedom of speech. They want to take away your right to bear arms… They want to take away your right to vote effectively,” Musk told the crowd on Saturday.
