The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is on the way on the way to become the most expensive court competition in American history. Wisconsin Democracy Company (WDC), A group of watchmen, which monitors the choice in the state, says that the total costs for the competition can reach $ 100 million. This is thanks not only to the more traditional companies of two contenders for the open place in the Supreme Court of Wisconsin-Progressive Judge Dane Susan Crowford and the right judge of Vakes Brady Shymel, but also for the expenses of the jaws funded by the billionaire.
In particular, groups funded by Elon Musk.
Samantha de Forest Davis, Director of WDC research, reports that independent costs in the court competition this year are 103 percent higher where at this point in the high -rate race 2023 was Janet Protasevich won the liberal justice. Victory Protasiewicz gave the court 4-3 liberal majority for the first time in decades. This year, the competition – to fill out a place released to the pension of liberal justice – will decide whether the highest court will remain liberal in the country in the country or turn to the right.
The rates are high. And the roof costs reflect this reality.
“These figures just continue to increase daily,” Les-Desis detach Milwaukee Sentinel MagazineEmphasizing that the Democracy campaign numbered $ 29.24 million two weeks before the April 1 election. At the same time, in the company of 2023, the indicator of independent expenses amounted to $ 14.41 million.
A considerable part of expenses – reported $ 13.2 million. Musk, who became the main player in the Republican Presidential Administration Donald Trump, preferred Shimel to the public in January. It was then that he came to his social media platform, X to promote Shimel’s candidacy Declaration What “it is very important to vote for the Republican in the Supreme Court of Wisconsin” – not knowing that the Wisconsin Supreme Court races are officially non -partisan and do not have republican and democratic voice lines.
Current Issue
Musk waste, when approaching the election, took the couples. Musk supported groups are already spending two -digit millions, the democracy campaign reports. And the number will certainly increase, as the overall expenses for the Schimel-Crawford race have been accelerated in recent weeks, which all recognize the first major electoral test in 2025.
Musk is not the only billionaire who is interested in Wisconsin’s race. Wealthy Democrats gave money to help Crawford, including, most recently, the former Mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg, Supporting a Weapons’ Safety Fund, which only allocated $ 600,000.
But Donald Trump’s “special government officer’s expense level was the main issue in the race – as it was shown in a single debate last week.
Cruford joined the discussion with services as a prosecutor, lawyer and lawyer, but not as a politician. She encountered an opponent who spent most of her adult, campaigning for a particular office. Former prosecutor of the republican district and the Attorney General, who was always coordinated with the victory of former Republican governor Scott Wocker, often voted in the last two decades and participated in national television debates when he won the 2014 office.
However, Kruford turned out to be a more qualified discussion. Indeed, she delivering what was easily the most funny jab of night when she called her opponent “Elon Shimel“
Unlike this, Shimel was silent in his own conversations. When he tried to raise Krouford with perverted attacks that imitated the internet trolling, she opposed the short, sharp dismissal of the republican comments. Cruford did this most efficiently while sharing Musk’s financing in Shimel. Clearly realizing that he had a particularly good night, Shimel tried to tie Crownard with liberal donors. But this line of the attack exploded in his face when discussing how the money affects the court race continues to return to Musk’s intervention in the race. “He spent more than $ 10 million on my enemy’s race. He mostly assumed Brad Shimel’s company,” ” announced Crown. “It is no coincidence that Elon Musk started spending the money within a few days after the trial in Wisconsin.” Trial According to the fact that the carmaker belonging to the muscles is aimed at the normative decision of Wisconsin, which prohibits car manufacturers to be able to own dealers in the state and may well be in the Supreme Court of the state.

But the greatest concern of Musk’s entry into the policy of Wisconsin is related to numerous issues related to the Trump administration – and the role of Musk in it. These conflicts are likely to be considered in the federal courts, but it is quite plausible that the state courts will also be knit. “Musk wants to make sure that he can prevent the check on himself and Trump from the States, and he starts here in Wisconsin,” says the Democratic Party of Visconsin Ben Vicler, Democratic Party.
Musk, South African billionaire, poured more than $ 270 million into groups to help Trump to choose in November last year. After the election, he was awarded the title of “special government officer” and was given a free repeat of the federal worker, use agencies, and access the sensitive data of hundreds of millions of Americans.
Musk’s authorities saw critics who call the billionaire as a “speaker” of the country. And it failed well with the American people. According to Politics.
More than half of the voters believe that Elon Musk and its Department of Government Efficiency are harmful, and a new poll at the University of Cuinipio. Fifty -four percent of voters believe that the doge of Trump’s administration has accused of reducing state expenses. For comparison, 40 percent say the Musk office helps according to data Poll Quinnipiac. And 60 percent of voters do not approve of how Musk and Dodge are engaged in the federal labor, and 36 percent are approved.
Wisconsin’s Democrats are so convinced that running against the richest oligarch in the world will help them defeat candidate Musk in the Supreme Court race they organize “People v. Musk“The events of the Town Hall. describes As a “Belveter County in the most bellish state” – the overflow of the crowd was packed in a local library at the local library. They carried out signs that proclaimed: “Do not let Elon Musk buy Wisconsin” and encouraged, as Wicler stated: “We are fighting for the democracy itself.”
There is something in this statement.
In recent years, the Wisconsin Supreme Court races have been exclusively expensive, and they have seen a lot of expenses for special interests outside the state. But now the final “particular interest” has come – the oligarch of $ 320 billion allows him to participate in the epic levels of personal expenses on behalf of his candidates’ supporters.
Shimel says he cannot be bought. But the support of the free expenses he receives from the groups agreed with the mask has a lot of Wisconsinites, causing concern about the independence of the court of the court. Thus, Musk’s intervention matters, a lot. And Shimel’s clumsy discussion allowed Susan Crouford to make a sharply more affair of Musk’s enthusiasm for Elon Shimel.
The hard and chaotic second term Donald Trump is just beginning. In the first month, Trump’s office and his Like -Elon Musk (or this is the opposite?) Proved that nothing is safe from sacrifice at the altar without checking strength and wealth.

The racist shade to the hacking government Elon Musk is terribly reflecting the vision of cyberpunk about the future – especially a science fiction that comes out of South Africa.
In good for racist business, the administration has completed a ban on individual facilities for federal contractors.
The appearance of JB Pritzker at the center of American progress met with a loud reception. But is it an elevation on the national scene to get to the workers?
The large shooting continues – and the next round of dismissal will reveal what power over the public lands Trump’s administration will concede to the corporation.
Under the guise of “combating anti -Semitism”, Trump is crushed by our rights and tells us we are safe.
