This morning African-American billionaire Elon Musk encouraged his followers on Twitter to vote Republican tomorrow.
In a tweet published this morning, Musk encouraged Twitter followers to vote Republican to curb power excesses from the Democratic Party, which currently enjoys one party rule.
“To independent minded voters,” Musk opened, “Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic.”
To independent-minded voters:
Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic.

Musk’s endorsement of a “Republican Congress” comes less than 24 hours before election day voting will begin across the United States.
Though many are convinced the Republican Party will experience a wave of electoral victories that will see it retake the House and possibly the Senate, the Democrats are already warning that the election may be hacked, impacted, or stolen outright by Russian hackers.
Amid this backdrop, Musk’s move also comes after he successfully bought Twitter with the goal of enforcing freedom of speech on the platform, though conservative fans are conflicted about his current progress.
Though no high profile individuals have been restored, and Musk’s Twitter is reportedly considering collaboration with left wing pressure groups, under Musk’s leadership the platform has begun fact checking misleading or flatly incorrect claims advanced by Joe Biden and other high profile Democrats.
Just prior to the weekend, Musk fired approximately 50% of all Twitter employees after bringing in Tesla staffers to lock Twitter’s legacy staff out of its systems.
