Elon Musk lawyer says $1 million voter giveaway winners are not random
Summary
Elon Musk’s pro-Trump group, America PAC, selects $1 million giveaway winners based on their potential as spokespeople rather than randomly.
The Philadelphia district attorney Lawrence Krasner alleges this violates state consumer protection laws. "This was all political marketing masquerading as a lottery, albeit an illegal lottery," Krasner said.
The U.S. Department of Justice has warned America PAC the giveaway could violate federal law, according to media reports, but federal prosecutors have not taken any public action.
The outcome of the lawsuit could impact the group’s ability to continue the contest, which has already awarded $16 million to registered voters in battleground states.

So….if they’re not random, does that violate the definition of lottery in PA state?
It's whatever it needs to be at the time to keep Musk out of trouble.
It's a shovel! And it keeps on digging!
It's some sort of quantum lottery ... or not
"Hey, you said I'd get a million dollars and this is only sixty-two bucks!"
