Billionaire Elon Musk said he plans to hold a rally in Wisconsin to “personally hand over” $2 million to a pair of voters who have already cast their ballots in the state’s hotly contested Supreme Court race, despite a state law that prohibits giving anything of value in exchange for voting.
Looks like a job for: a well regulated Militia necessary to the security of a free state.
Lock him up.
This is a big fat finger in the face of democracy and law and order. And nobody is doing anything about it.
Well, there’s certainly some rallies. I’ve attended a couple, but we’re certainly getting low on polite options.
Everyone knows what’s left to do after nobody does anything. Yet nobody is doing that either.
This certainly seems like he could be arrested and face state chargers for election interference here. Wisconsin, get your shit together.
Definitely not if he’s successful, and probably not if he’s unsuccessful, if we’re being honest.
Yeah, he already did this in the general, no one gave a shit.
Wisconsin, get armed and angry.
How this is legal? In the past when a private citizen would go up to a politician and hand him a bag of money for some favor, we called that bribery/corruption and both would go to jail. Now a billionaire gives a personal contribution of 300 million to a politician in exchange for a high government position, and no one lifts a finger.
Boehner was handing out checks on the house floor two decades ago.

we called that lobbying I think
Wisconsin, do the right thing and arrest this guy.
Well guys, we know where he will be…………….
Haha wow this would probably be super dangerous if he did it in a country with one of the most lax firearms laws in the world and where the ratio of firearms:population is notably greater than 1
For reference, here is the pertinent section of the Wisconsin Bribery statute (taken from this PoliticsUSA.com post)
So 2 Wisconsinites have the chance to do the funniest thing of all time?
I’m still outraged by 2,000 mules here /s - but this is just straight election interference.
Is this a surprise?
Not the most efficient way to rally two (2) votes.
