Rattled Michigan Democrats Launch Investigation of Elon Musk’s Pro-Trump Super PAC For ‘Potential Violations’
Michigan Democrats have launched an investigation into Elon Musk’s pro-Trump super PAC on the grounds of “potential violations” of electoral law.
According to CNBC, Michigan’s Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is investigation the America PAC over its methods of collecting data from voters who they are encouraging to sign up to vote.
“Every citizen should know exactly how their personal information is being used by PACs, especially if an entity is claiming it will help people register to vote in Michigan or any other state,” a spokeswoman for Benson’s office said in a statement to CNBC.
“While the America PAC is a federal political action committee, the Department is reviewing their activities to determine if there have been any violations of state law,” they continued.
