Elon Musk’s super PAC has spent more than $10 million in these 18 districts to keep the GOP in control of the House

• Elon Musk’s “America PAC” has spent tens of millions of dollars to help Donald Trump.
• But the super PAC has also boosted Republicans in more than a dozen House races nationwide.
• It shows that Musk’s involvement with the GOP won’t stop with Trump.

Elon Musk’s super PAC has already spent tens of millions of dollars on electing Donald Trump, and he spoke at the former president’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania in October.

But Musk isn’t just boosting Trump: the tech billionaire’s “America PAC” has been wading into the fight for control of the House of Representatives for weeks.

As of October 14, America PAC has spent more than $10.1 million across 18 competitive House races, according to recent filings with the Federal Election Commission.

In an interview with Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson in July, Musk said that his PAC was “not meant to be sort of a hyperpartisan PAC” and its goals were “promoting meritocracy” and promoting “freedom to operate, meaning the least amount of government intervention possible.”

It still remains unclear how much Musk, who created the PAC and is reportedly involved deeply in its operations, has contributed to it himself. The PAC’s July report did not include any contributions from Musk, and the group isn’t required to disclose further contributions until mid-October. Musk has also denied earlier reports that he planned to spend $45 million per month on the effort.

Musk has not responded to a request for comment.

So far, America PAC has spent more than $100 million on the election, the vast majority of which has gone toward supporting Trump and opposing Vice President Kamala Harris.

But the spending indicates that Musk’s pivot toward the right isn’t limited to Trump, and that he’s invested in helping Republicans hold onto control of the House as well.

The races where Musk’s PAC is spending

According to recent FEC filings, Musk’s PAC is spending heavily on both digital ads and canvassing operations.

In each instance, the PAC is spending an equal amount on boosting the GOP candidate and going negative on the Democratic candidate.

In each of the following districts, listed in descending order based on the amount spent so far, the total spending per district has been rounded to the nearest $100.
