Fmr #Republican lawmakers, advisers & #DOJ ofcls have called on AG #MerrickGarland to investigate #tech #billionaire #ElonMusk for awarding cash prizes to voters in swing states if they sign his political organization’s petition, according to a letter sent to Garland on Monday.

The letter argues that the large prizes set up by #Musk, a vocal supporter of #Trump, violate federal #voting #laws that prohibit paying people to register to #vote.
