    It isn’t bribary. The checks aren’t valid, as many have claimed, so they think their vote gets bought but in the end they are just being scammed. That’s what happens when you trust Elon. He lies. Even as the richest man in the world he’s too cheap to pay out 1000 dollar votes he bought. Also, breaking the law is only being punished when you’re poor. Elon broke the law many times by influencing the stock market for his own profits. And of course all the rapes. He hasn’t been convicted of anything. Just “warnings”.

      Did you read the law I posted and linked? They don’t have to follow through. Anyone who even offers money or anything else of value to someone to get them to vote or not vote at all is in violation of this law. Whether they follow through on it or not. Just making the offer is a crime. Elon offered money to people to vote. Period. He broke this statute.
