- Elon Musk’s mom ‘encouraged X followers to commit voter fraud’ as she is fact-checked on son’s platform (newsbreak.com)
Elon Musk’s mother, Maye Musk, encouraged her followers to commit voter fraud by casting multiple votes under fake names.
Her statement prompted a fact-check from her son’s social media platform, X, which added a note stating that such actions are illegal.
Several attorneys condemned Musk’s post, labeling it a solicitation of a crime and a violation of the US Code.
Musk later retracted her statement, claiming it was a joke. However, she still supported Donald Trump’s false claim that elections would be eliminated if he doesn’t win in November.
