People who got money to vote should be named and shamed.
I almost guarantee he canceled those checks the second she won.
Some of those people probably took the money and voted Democrat anyway.
If someone was trying to bride me for a vote I’d take their money and still vote for whoever I wanted.
What’s he going to do? Look over my shoulder and verify who I voted for?
Still, it probably has a chilling ef fect. Voting Dems becomes like a secret you have to keep rather than something you should shout from the roofs - less likely to make that post on social media, put up a sticker or a sign, tell your friend and family etc.
It’s not legally binding though. You could absolutely shout from the rooftops how you got Elon’s money and now you’re voting Dem, and encourage people to do the same. If enough people brag openly about doing it, it would be terribly humiliating for Elon.
Point taken.
I think he is skirting the law by having the payments be for signing a petition tangential to a vote, but not directly about voting. It’s scummy to say the least, and if you did sign, you’ll probably get spam calls and mail for the rest of your life. At least in this case, the outcome was that Elon didn’t get his preferred candidate to win, he’s wasting money paying people to get on his mailing list, and now when Tesla’s Wisconsin case gets to the state supreme court, Crawford will be on the court
From here:
The language used is super interesting. “Defying Elon Musk”
Defying. A terrifying word, yet appropriate.
Musk has no position in the Wisconsin state government. He’s not a constituent. You shouldn’t be able to “defy” him because he has no position of authority.
Yet they used the word “defying” and it’s terrifyingly the correct word.
This is the best news in 7 months
Eat shit Musk.
The Empire was fought to a standstill, and Lady Crawford Organa took her seat on the high judicial council.
Or maybe it’s just the judicial council. I dunno. I’m high.
But well done Wisconsin - the force was fucking with you today!
It’s small, but this is definitely a win worth celebrating.
Prediction: Trump will come out saying that Cory Booker’s record-breaking speech was a smokescreen to distract from the fact that George Soros was stealing votes in this election.
I wish I wasn’t serious.
M.U.S.K. (Make United States Kneel). How one South African tried to topple the american superpower.
Arrest Musk!
sad to have heard about florida. But this was good news!
Wait till we learn how much the Luigi trial jurors are paid to hang him.
Hahahahaha
Yay! Woman power!
