The claim about concerns over swing state hand recounts and Elon Musk’s lottery is based on real events from the 2024 election. Cybersecurity expert Stephen Spoonamore raised alarms about an unusually high number of “bullet” ballots—those with only one candidate selected—in key swing states, suggesting possible electronic vote manipulation and urging hand recounts (Free Press). Separately, Musk’s America PAC ran a $1 million a day lottery targeting voters in swing states, which prompted legal challenges, including from the Philadelphia District Attorney, who argued it could violate election laws and enable data harvesting due to the personal information required to enter (PBS, The Verge, Reuters).
