Elon Musk’s super PAC has spent $1 million on canvassing operations supporting the conservative candidate in the race, his first election spending after the 2024 campaign.

Schimel, as Wisconsin’s attorney general from 2015 to 2019, defended the state’s strict voter ID law in court and claimed it was a key reason why Trump won Wisconsin in 2016. He also sent Department of Justice staff to monitor the polls in heavily Democratic areas in that election, which Democrats viewed as voter intimidation.

Not satisfied with massively remaking Washington, the tech mogul’s allies look to exert his influence in the states.

Wisconsin Supreme Court election could tip the balance of the court, with liberal Justice Ann Walsh Bradley stepping down from her seat.

As Wisconsin voters weigh the future direction of the state Supreme Court, a group backed by Elon Musk is hitting local airwaves.

But conservatives say wealthy liberals are also making big donations in the contest between Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel.
