Elon Musk offers Pennsylvania voters $100 each as he makes his case for Trump
Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, has found a new way to put his money to work in the election by offering $100 to registered voters in Pennsylvania for signing a petition for freedom of speech and the Second Amendment .
The owner of X and Tesla has headed to the battleground to carry out a massive voting operation in support of Donald Trump.
And whoever wins Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral college votes on November 5 will be in prime position to capture the White House.
On Thursday evening, Musk appealed directly to Pennsylvania voters.
“If you are a registered voter in Pennsylvania, you and whoever referred you will now get $100 for signing our petition in support of freedom of speech and the right to bear arms,” he posted on his own social media platform .

‘Earn money by supporting something you already believe in! Offer valid until midnight Monday.’
Musk, who is worth more than $200 billion, has entered the race in recent weeks.
He appeared alongside Trump this month at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and has formed a political action committee to channel his money into the fight.
It is the second time he has offered money to his supporters. His America PAC previously offered $47 (Trump would be the 47th president if he wins in November, as well as the 45th) for each swing state voter to sign the petition.
The documents released this week show that he gave $75 million to the group for the final piece.
And on Thursday evening, he kicked off a campaign in the state, speaking at a town hall for people who signed up with his PAC.
“I can’t emphasize enough that Pennsylvania, I think, is the linchpin in this election,” he told a crowd in Folsom before explaining why he had decided to enter politics in 2024.
“These elections, I believe, will determine the fate of America, and along with the fate of America, the fate of Western civilization.”

The state race couldn’t be more important or exciting.
A DailyMail.com/JL Partners poll last week showed Trump running neck-and-neck with Harris. If there were elections tomorrow, they would each get 47 percent of the vote.
Trump is committed to winning the state.
He will hold a rally at an airport outside Pittsburgh on Saturday before a series of events a day later.
Republicans have encroached on Democrats’ long-standing lead in voter registration.
“The next, basically, three days are essential,” Musk told his audience as he explained the fine margins on the job.
“I think what we’re seeing is that this election in Pennsylvania is going to be decided by, it could be 10,000 votes, it could be 1,000 votes, it could be 10 votes.
“It can be a very small number, so every person who increases makes a huge difference.”
