The petition on defending free speech and gun rights is aimed at bringing in potential voters for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO of Tesla and owner of X (formerly Twitter) kicked off his give-away campaign on Saturday by handing the first check for one million dollars to an attendee of his rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, while urging people to vote for the former US president.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cBy the way, John had no idea. So anyway, you\u2019re welcome,\u201d<\/em> Musk said as he gave the check to a man named John Dreher.<\/p>\n<p>With just over two weeks before the election, the latest polls suggest that Democratic candidate Kamala Harris is outpacing Trump in three battleground states \u2014 Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.<\/p>\n<p>One of the two major US political parties, the Republicans and the Democrats, dominates most of the states of the country. However, voters are more evenly divided in the \u2018swing\u2019 or \u2018battleground\u2019 states, making them key to winning.<\/p>\n<p>Every day, from now through Nov 5, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/america?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@America<\/a> PAC will be giving away $1M to someone in swing states who signed our petition to support free speech &amp; the right to bear arms!<\/p>\n<p>We want to make sure that everyone in swing states hears about this and I suspect this will ensure they do.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1847856712914555061?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 20, 2024<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Nationally, the current Vice President leads the former head of state by two points among likely voters, as per polls conducted by the New York Times.<\/p>\n<p>Musk, who had previously positioned himself as politically neutral, publicly endorsed the Republican nominee shortly after the failed assassination attempt on Trump on July 13.
