A conservative nonprofit backed by billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk is getting involved in a race that will determine the political direction of the highest court in one of the country’s most important presidential battleground states.

Not satisfied with massively remaking Washington, the tech mogul’s allies look to exert his influence in the states.

Schimel, as Wisconsin’s attorney general from 2015 to 2019, defended the state’s strict voter ID law in court and claimed it was a key reason why Trump won Wisconsin in 2016. He also sent Department of Justice staff to monitor the polls in heavily Democratic areas in that election, which Democrats viewed as voter intimidation.

But conservatives say wealthy liberals are also making big donations in the contest between Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel.

Billionaire megadonors are opening their wallets to influence the high-stakes race for control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

As Wisconsin voters weigh the future direction of the state Supreme Court, a group backed by Elon Musk is hitting local airwaves.
