Elon Musk has increased his payment offer to $100 for registered voters in swing states who sign a conservative petition supporting gun and speech rights. This offer, which was previously set at $47, aims to encourage participation before Pennsylvania's voter registration deadline. Musk announced the new offer on X after promoting a pro-Trump agenda at a town hall event in Pennsylvania. His America PAC launched the petition earlier this month, focusing on the First and Second Amendments of the Constitution. The payment is for signing the petition and referring others, which may comply with campaign finance laws. Musk has actively supported Donald Trump, recently donating $75 million to his super PAC and participating in campaign events in Pennsylvania.
