Elon Musk’s plan to award $1 million each to two voters during a Green Bay event proceeded as scheduled after the Wisconsin Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling in his favor. The court rejected an attempt by Attorney General Josh Kaul to block the giveaways, which were organized by Musk’s political action committee, America PAC.

The ruling came just minutes before the rally began, marking a legal victory for Musk’s team after lower courts had already dismissed Kaul’s earlier challenges. The attorney general, a Democrat, argued that the giveaway violated Wisconsin election law, which prohibits offering anything of value to influence voting behavior.

Despite Kaul’s objections, the state’s highest court saw no legal grounds to halt the event. The justices did not release a detailed written opinion immediately but made it clear that Musk was legally allowed to proceed.

Musk’s America PAC, which has been active in political outreach, facilitated the $1 million cash awards as part of a campaign-style rally. The tactic mirrors a similar strategy Musk used during a previous election cycle, where he combined promotional events with high-profile giveaways to boost engagement and visibility.

The recipients of the $1 million prizes were reportedly chosen from among attendees, although the selection process was not fully disclosed. Musk did not address the legal controversy directly during the event but emphasized themes of voter empowerment and civic participation.

With the court’s decision now backing the legality of such giveaways in Wisconsin, the event sets a precedent that could influence how political actors use financial incentives in future campaigns. The ruling also highlights ongoing debates about where the line is drawn between outreach and inducement in election law.

The attorney general’s office has not yet commented on whether it will seek further legal remedies or clarification on the broader implications of the decision. For now, Musk’s high-profile giveaway has gained judicial approval, potentially reshaping campaign strategies in closely watched states.
