The political action committee (PAC) funded by Elon Musk, specifically formed to aid Donald Trump's return to the White House, is in turmoil over allegations of falsified doorknocking figures. According to an exclusive report by Reuters, concerns have arisen within America PAC's operations in key battleground states like Wisconsin and Nevada. These issues have surfaced just as the PAC ramps up efforts to rally voter support before the critical November 5 election.
Insiders report that canvassers were allegedly falsifying the number of voter contacts, prompting PAC managers to reinforce targets and emphasize the importance of reaching out to potential voters. Alysia McMillan, a former Wisconsin canvasser with America PAC, confirmed to Reuters that urgent warnings were issued to staff about the lagging voter contact numbers, threatening their goal of engaging 450,000 voters by Election Day. Meetings held as recently as October 8 reveal some managers expressing doubt over reaching that target with current resources.
Similar concerns are reportedly echoed in Arizona, though sources within the PAC dispute these claims, asserting confidence in meeting the outreach objectives. Despite Musk's significant financial backing, amounting to at least $75 million according to federal disclosures, the PAC's campaign operations are described as being in disarray. The stakes are particularly high in swing states like Wisconsin and Nevada, where both presidential candidates are intensely competing for votes amid a highly competitive race only weeks away from the election.
The outcome in these states could significantly sway the overall election result, making the effectiveness of America PAC's efforts crucial to Trump's re-election bid.
