pretty fucking close to vote buying if you ask me
I’ll take his money and then not vote for Trump. It’s not like he can tell.
Honestly, I kinda hope he can tell. I’d love for there to be a paper trail of me accepting $100 from Elon and then voting for Harris. Hell, I’d put the money toward renting a highway billboard as close to the Tesla HQ as possible showing the receipts. Fuck him.
He can, though. In another post about Cards Against Humanity’s project, they explained how criminally easy it was to create a PAC, request and acquire voters information. They can see your registered voter information and who you’ve voted for in the past.
Edit: Someone corrected me that you can’t see exactly who people voted for, but, you can see party affiliation, and if you voted. Going by that data, he can assume you voted for the party you’re affiliated with.
I’d like to see that source. The voter information should be limited to their registered address and what primary or caucus they voted in - not their individual votes, which are anonymized. At most, a PAC should only be able to infer (from the voter information alone) a likelihood of which political party the voter is associated with. Now, if they take that voters info and combine it with open source intelligence, social media, advertising intelligence/marketing data, they can make much better assumptions.
At the locality level, the voter is issued a serialized ballot. The local township, city, whatever keeps a log that “voter x received ballot Y”, but that’s where the association ends. Before being tabulated (read by the optical scanning machine and dropped into a sealed chamber), an election official removes to perforated strip containing the serial number, and the voter deposits the ballot (deserialized) into the tabulator. There is no input to the tabulator to indicate which ballot, or which voter was just processed.
The registration receipts and ballots (without serial numbers) are kept by the locality under seal for a designated retention period.

Voting records don’t show whom you voted for. They do show party affiliation, which they can infer from.
Highly doubt Musk will pay, also hilarious that the reason is “to protect constitutional rights” when the person who he is endorsing has 0 integrity for that asides for freedom of his own speech…
You can tell capitalists are getting desperate when they start offering brides … bribes … to voters during an election
EDIT: beautiful how a simple typo can grab people’s attention so much
Is that an unfortunate typo? Or are they also offering brides alongside monetary bribes?
Nah, he found someone as morally bankrupt as him and they’re as happy as two peas in a pod.
Correction:
You can tell capitalists are getting desperate when they start offering brides to voters during an erection

Jesus fucking Christ literally billionaires buying elections… Will they riot? Of course not because they win with this. If Mark Cuban offered the same thing for Harris there would be blood in the streets and Fox news would be calling for his head after Trumps coronation…
Yo go get the money but then still vote Harris. What’s he gonna do lol?
Do I get the money first?
Edit: Aw, beans. It’s for Pennsylvania voters.
