Tax records reviewed by Sludge show that a nonprofit which helped get Cornel West on presidential ballots in 2024 received all of its funding that year from a conservative political network bankrolled by Elon Musk. Critics are pointing to the report as evidence that West's third-party campaign may have benefited right-leaning interests by potentially drawing votes away from Democrats, reviving debate over spoiler campaigns and opaque political money in the 2024 election.
Why now: Renewed scrutiny of Elon Musk's political spending and third-party spoiler campaigns in the 2024 election.
