Elon Musk campaigned on Sunday in Green Bay for a state Supreme Court candidate he has spent lavishly to support — but who did not attend his event.

Tech billionaire Elon Musk, a close ally of President Donald Trump, sank millions into the Wisconsin state Supreme Court race and came up empty on Tuesday night. And his critics are overjoyed. Musk and Musk-aligned groups spent some $20 million to help conservative candidate Brad Schimel.

Susan Crawford, who led legal fights to protect union power and abortion rights and to oppose voter ID, defeated Republican-backed Brad Schimel in a race that became a proxy fight for the nation’s political battles.

Wisconsin voters will choose a new State Supreme Court justice in an election that will determine whether liberals retain a 4-to-3 majority or whether conservatives take control of the state’s judiciary.

Tuesday’s election to fill a Supreme Court seat in Wisconsin has emerged as the country’s first major political battle since President Donald Trump returned to the White House. It offers both an early test of the president’s popularity in a state he narrowly flipped last year and a gauge of the political machine that Trump ally Elon Musk has deployed to drive up turnout in this swing state.

Voters are heading to the polls Tuesday in Wisconsin to settle a high stakes Supreme Court race between Republican-backed Brad Schimel, and Democratic-backed Susan Crawford.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court race could wind up being a referendum on the president’s trade policies. Rural swaths of the country that helped power Donald Trump to victory are facing serious economic headwinds inflicted by his administration.
