District attorney says awards to registered voters from billionaire’s pro-Trump America Pac are an ‘illegal lottery’

The Philadelphia district attorney’s office filed the lawsuit on Monday. It called the giveaway by Musk’s America Pac, which backs Donald Trump, an “illegal lottery” that entices Pennsylvania residents to share personal data.
