Elon Musk advocates for in-person voting despite his super PAC supporting mail-in voting


Tech billionaire Elon Musk stated at a town hall event in Pennsylvania that he believes voting should be done in person with paper ballots and identification to prevent potential voter fraud. This contradicts his own voting history of voting by mail and the efforts of his pro-Trump super PAC to promote mail-in and absentee ballots. Musk has also promoted debunked conspiracy theories about Dominion Voting Systems and voter fraud, despite no evidence of widespread fraud in the United States. His super PAC has received nearly $75 million from him and is currently encouraging absentee voting.

Musk’s opposition to mail-in voting has not been resolved with his own actions, as he continues to promote in-person voting despite previously voting by mail. He suggested using social media to track potential voter fraud and encouraged people to share evidence on his platform X. Musk also repeated false conspiracy theories during the event, including claims about immigrants casting illegal votes and California’s elections. He also made jokes about the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021, which some audience members found humorous.

Overall, Musk’s comments at the town hall event highlighted his views on voting and conspiracy theories, as well as his support for Trump and conservative activists. His contradictory statements on voting methods and promotion of debunked theories show a disconnect between his personal actions and beliefs.
