Elon Musk Accused of Spreading Deceptive Election Texts

Elon Musk is being accused of election crimes over text messages that mimic official election communications in Colorado and Washington. Both states conduct elections entirely by mail and do not require voters to request ballots, so critics say the texts are a phishing-style scam designed to confuse voters with official-looking information. Observers are calling the messages deceptive misinformation.

Why now: Claims that a high-profile figure is interfering with vote-by-mail states in a current election are drawing intense scrutiny.
