SpaceX and Tesla have high election stakes as Elon Musk pours $366 million into campaigns

What the coverage shows

The coverage mostly converges on Musk floating a possible SpaceX-Tesla combination and on the companies setting up special committees to review it. Axios, TechCrunch, Engadget and the BBC all foreground the merger exploration, while Bloomberg, CNBC and The Independent emphasize investor reaction or the deal’s scale. The New York Times frames it as a potential consolidation of Musk’s rockets, cars and AI holdings, while Reuters presents it more as a market and empire question.
