Wisconsin panel flags probable law violation over Musk’s $1M voter payouts
The Wisconsin Elections Commission found probable cause that Elon Musk violated state election law by promising $1 million to voters in the 2025 state Supreme Court race; the complaints were referred to Brown County prosecutors, who have about 40 days to respond. Musk and allied groups spent over $20 million on the contest, and several voters received checks at a Green Bay rally, triggering lawsuits and ongoing challenges over the legality of cash incentives to sway elections.
