MADISON, WI (AP)— Billionaire Elon Musk says a Wisconsin voter has been awarded $1 million just days before the conclusion of a fiercely contested state Supreme Court election that's broken spending records.
He announced the payment to a Green Bay man on Wednesday night on his social media platform X.
Tuesday’s upcoming election will determine whether the court will remain under 4-3 liberal control or flip to a conservative majority. A spokesman for the Democratic-backed candidate called the payment “corrupt" and “disgraceful to our state and judiciary,”
The race has become a referendum on Musk and the first months of President Donald Trump’s administration.
