Ashley St. Clair says Elon Musk told her he used Starlink satellites to influence the 2024 presidential election. St. Clair is a former conservative influencer and the mother of one of Musk's children; she has been involved in custody and child support disputes. Musk has not confirmed her claim and no independent evidence has been made public to substantiate it. The allegation matters because Starlink, operated by SpaceX, is a major satellite internet network and any misuse could disrupt communications, affect voter access, and prompt legal or regulatory investigations.
