Musk says he’ll award $1 million every day to Pennsylvania voters who sign his petition
Elon Musk announced he will pay up to $1 million per day to Pennsylvania voters who sign his America PAC petition leading up to Election Day.
The petition asks signers to support free speech and the right to bear arms.
“One of the challenges we’re having is like, well, how do we get people to know about this petition? Because the legacy media is— won’t report on it,” Musk said at a Saturday event in support of President Trump in Pennsylvania. ”You know, not everyone’s on X. So, I figure, how do we get people to know about it? Well, this news, I think, is going to really fly.”
After the announcement the tech giant, who publicly endorsed the former president’s bid for the White House after his July assassination attempt, immediately chose one of the audience members to be the first recipient of the prize.
“The only thing we ask for the million dollars is that you be a spokesperson for the petition,” Musk told the awardee.
Musk kick started campaign events for former President Trump in the Keystone State on Thursday, pursuing undecided voters on the crucial battleground’s turf.
Lawmakers like Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) have admitted that the entrepreneur is able to appeal to a demographic that Democrats struggle to reach.
“Most endorsements don’t count for much in this business, but Musk is … incredibly popular, and he has an appeal to a demographic that Democrats have struggled with,” Fetterman said earlier this week.
Musk has served as a “megaphone” of the former president’s thoughts, tones and rhetoric on social platforms like X, which the tech billionaire owns. Since July, Musk has personally contributed at least $75 million to support Trump’s re-election bid through the PAC.
Musk also recently pledged to give voters in battleground states outside of Pennsylvania $47 for signing the petition and another $47 for referrals.

The General will always be remembered for the role he played in keeping this great country as one and unbreakable. Happy 90th birthday, Sir.
It gladdens my heart to celebrate a patriotic Nigerian, statesman and a pathfinder at 90.
General Yakubu Gowon (Rtd), former Head of State of Nigeria, wears nobility upon himself in the onerous service to our nation.
His footprints remain indelible. Notable among those is his great initiative of the National Youths Service Corps which was designed to perfectly give every young person a touch of unity in our diversity while proudly being clad with the badge of honour to serve our nation.
On behalf of the people and government of Ondo state, I congratulate the General who's not tired to serve our country even at 90.
May the Lord keep him healthy and strong to witness more years of meritorious service to humanity.

Speech by Major-General Yakubu Gowon Calling For The Surrender of Biafra | May 28th 1968
Major-General Yakubu Gowon, the Nigerian head of state and commander-in-chief of the armed forces, calls on the secessionist state of Biafra to surrender in a speech on May 28th 1968.
He was speaking from his official residence, Dodan Barracks.
Transcript:
"I do not wish to say anything on this occasion that might be regarded as prejudicial to the peace talks now going on in Kampala, Uganda, but in the words of Mr. Asika (the civilian administrator of the newly created East-Central State), the rebel leaders ought to know when enough is enough. They should call a halt to the shameless deception of innocent Igbos with reports of fictitious victories on the battle-fronts. They should appreciate that the so-called diplomatic recognition by dubious characters, will not in the least alter the course of Nigerian history. It is sheer wickedness for Ojukwu and his clique to continue to goad innocent citizens to support the rebellion and lay down their lives for a cause that is not just. The rebel leaders know in their hearts of hearts, that all their false propaganda about genocide and massacre derives from personal ambition and the haunting fear of their own future and safety, consequently they do not know when to stop.
I call on those who claim to love Nigeria and the Igbos, to face reality and advise the people of the East Central State to lay down their arms and return to the fold. It is not enough for organisations and individuals to ask the federal government to cease hostilities while ignoring the evil intentions of the rebels. I honestly believe it is in the true interests of the Igbos that they return to the fatherland. I am satisfied that all of the Nigerians have learnt the lesson of our most recent history and the current war and I pray that there will never be a repetition."
