"Trump edged Democrat Kamala Harris in Wisconsin by just 0.86 percentage points, the tightest margin of any state. That narrow win, as well as a highly competitive 2023 state Supreme Court contest, could foreshadow the possible paths to victory for this year’s statewide campaigns."

Musk couldn't buy the election despite spending millions of dollars.
Dude should focus on building cars, rockets, and satellite systems.

This was the most expensive court race in U.S. history with more than $80 million allocated as of March 25.

55% to 45% Musk presented two party followers with one million $ checks!! I guess he should have spread that around on the other party voters!
