I'm going to lower the bar:
If the government issues any sort of indictment in the next 3 weeks, I'll agree that they are taking it seriously. Even without bail.
Also this is just an illegal lottery
It's not actually illegal. He is paying a lottery to people who register to vote. Similarly, Cards Against Humanity is paying people who didn't vote last election to make a voting plan.

It doesn't pay you to register to vote. I read the whole website when it started
