Musk PAC Opens Midterm Spending in Texas, Maine

Elon Musk's America PAC has started spending on the 2026 midterms, and its first federal disclosure shows Texas and Maine are the priority.

The super PAC reported $800,475 in expenditures across seven U.S. Senate races and several competitive House contests, according to a Federal Election Commission filing disclosed Wednesday and reported by IBTimes and Just the News.

Nearly 90% of the money went to Senate races. Every dollar was categorized as printing — direct mail, not television.

Where the money went

Texas got the biggest share: more than $247,000, split between roughly $125,000 supporting Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton and about $123,000 opposing Democrat James Talarico, according to Just the News.

Maine was second at roughly $170,000 — about $135,000 against Democratic nominee Troy Jackson and about $35,000 supporting Republican Sen. Susan Collins.

Ohio drew nearly $106,000 to support Republican Sen. Jon Husted. The filing also lists $91,459 in New Hampshire, $54,600 in Iowa, $25,605 in Michigan and $17,235 in Alaska.

On the House side, nearly $90,000 went across eight races, backing Republican incumbents Derrick Van Orden in Wisconsin, Mike Lawler in New York, Jen Kiggans in Virginia, Tom Kean Jr. in New Jersey, and Scott Perry, Rob Bresnahan and Ryan Mackenzie in Pennsylvania. The PAC is also backing Republican Scott Singer, who is challenging Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz in Florida.

The printing expenses were paid to Storytellers Group, a political vendor that specializes in direct mail, Just the News reported.
