Elon Musk town hall at Ridley High School

Elon Musk is appearing at Ridley High School this afternoon in what is billed as a town-hall style event. Musk has become a major supporter of former president Donald Trump and big donor to Trump's reelection campaign.

"Currently, I have 3 talks scheduled in Pennsylvania, but will probably do half a dozen throughout the state," Musk wrote on his social media network X early Thursday morning.

The series of town halls is hosted by America PAC, which is a pro-Trump organization founded by Musk.

At Ridley High School, numerous people were in line by early afternoon.

Linda Adams of Ridley said she is a big fan of Former Trump and Musk.

"I never been to anything like this before ... I'm interested in see what it's like, it's exciting," she said. "It's good to see a lot of fellow Ridley people here and support what we think is right."

Students and staff had to leave the property by 3:30 p.m. but a group stood by the adjoining community center building next door to cheer and wave a Trump flag.

One attendee driving a Tesla was annoyed about parking for the event. You have to park on the street, a Ridley Township officer told him.

Police from across the county were on hand, as were SWAT teams.

Gregory Ctenctom of Glen Mills was in attendance and hoped to get Musk the message about a lawsuit he and Trump filed in 2020 of what he said was massive voter fraud.

He said the fraud continues today with voting machines that are not certified. A woman from Chester Springs said she wanted to hear about how to fix problems in the country.

There were a lot smiling Ridley officials in the lobby.

Musk, who has been a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump's campaign over the past few months, joined Trump on stage at a rally in Butler on Oct. 5. Musk and Trump have said he'd campaign for him throughout Pennsylvania leading up to the presidential election.

The Philadelphia suburbs has been home to several high profile campaign events over the past few days.

On Monday, Trump hosted a town hall in Montgomery County, although he only answered five audience questions before cutting the event short after two medical emergencies in the audience.

Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party's candidate for president, was in Bucks County on Wednesday for a speech focused on winning over disaffected Republicans.

Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance has been in the area almost weekly .
