What to know

  • 01

    The plaintiffs said they would not have signed the required petition had they known the winners were not selected randomly.

  • 02

    They also accused Musk and America PAC of collecting personal data through the giveaway, saying the petition did not restrict America PAC’s use or sale of that data.

Why it matters

The lawsuits concern the accuracy of voter-giveaway claims and the disclosure of rules for using participants’ personal data.
