Elon Musk Invests Heavily in Wisconsin Supreme Court Race

Elon Musk said Tuesday's election in Wisconsin isn't just about a state Supreme Court race — but what he called a chance to protect President Donald Trump's agenda and his DOGE efforts.

"It's a super big deal," Musk said. "I'm not phoning it in. It's why I'm here."

Musk worries a liberal-leaning court will take up congressional redistricting in Wisconsin and potentially change Republicans' thin margins in the House — impacting Trump's agenda.

"It's obviously important to the state, but also to the country and the world," Musk said at the KI Convention Center in Green Bay.

Some in the audience, estimated at about 2,000, pushed back when he mentioned DOGE — prompting Musk to bring up Democratic billionaire supporter George Soros.

"Give my regards to George," Musk said. "Say hi to George."

The crowd chanted, "U.S.A."

Musk then gave out $1 million checks to two selected people who signed his petition against activist judges.

"I don't think it's unorthodox at all,” said Becca Sinclair, a Musk supporter. "I think if you look at large donors on the Democratic side, yeah, it's not unorthodox. This is America, and I think what he's doing is really going to save our country."

With the surge in early voting numbers — and a battle between billionaires—this has already become the most expensive state Supreme Court race in American politics and perhaps the biggest turnout in Wisconsin for an April election.
