Elon Musk has given $1 million to a Green Bay man who signed his petition opposing “activist judges.” The seven-figure payment comes days before the April 1 election where PACs associated with Musk have spent tens of millions to support the campaign of conservative Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel in the high-stakes race against liberal candidate Susan Crawford. In a Wednesday night post to the billionaire’s social media platform, X, Musk said the “first million dollar award” for supporters of his petition went to a man named Scott A from Green Bay. “Next million dollar award will be announced in 2 days,” Musk said. Musk used the same approach last year to drive voter registration in swing states ahead of President Donald Trump’s reelection in November. An Eau Claire man reportedly received a $1 million payment in October.
