Elon Musk, who spent millions opposing her. The most expensive race of its kind drew national attention, owing to Elon Musk's significant investment in Brad Schimel's campaign, which ultimately failed to sway voters. The ostensibly nonpartisan race turned into the costliest state Supreme Court race in American history, serving as the first significant battleground state election of President Donald Trump's second term. Following Crawford's win in the first battleground state election of Donald Trump's second term, liberals will continue to hold a slim majority on the court. According to NBC News, Democratic-backed Dane County circuit judge Susan Crawford defeated former Republican attorney general Brad Schimel, a Waukesha County circuit judge, to win a 10-year term on the court. Donald Trump and Elon Musk, his multibillionaire advisor, suffer as a result.

Elon Musk acknowledged that his job as head of President Donald Trump’s effort to cut the size of government is “costing me a lot” when it comes to his other big job, as CEO of Tesla Inc. Political backlash from Musk’s recent political forays in the US and around the world have weighed on Tesla at home and abroad. “It’s costing me a lot to be in this job,” Musk said at a town hall event in Wisconsin, noting some of his political opponents have highlighted the stock’s retreat. “What they’re trying to do is put massive pressure on me, and Tesla I guess, to you know, I don’t know, stop doing this,” Musk said. “My Tesla stock and the stock of everyone who holds Tesla has gone, went roughly in half. I mean it’s a big deal.” Tesla shares rose to a record high in the month after Trump was elected, but have dropped 45% since their Dec. 17 peak. While he remains the world’s richest man, Musk’s own personal wealth has declined by more than $100 billion this year, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. “Long term I think Tesla stock’s going to do fine, so maybe it’s a buying opportunity,” Musk said.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s name will remain on the presidential ballot in Wisconsin after a judge denied his request to have it removed, potentially hurting Donald Trump's re-election chances. RFK Jr. abandoned his own independent presidential campaign late last month to support the former president, who has offered him a cabinet position if he returns to office. The former Democrat has since scrambled to remove his name from ballots across swing states, stating that if his name remains, he would likely hand the election over to the Democrats after abandoning his presidential campaign. The removal of RFK Jr. from ballots in swing states could help Republicans secure key votes in the tight race for the White House between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
