A loss for a sit in Wisconsin's Supreme Court has left Republicans questioning billionaire Elon Musk's involvement in their party politics. At the same time, Democrats are seeing it as an opportunity to increase their popularity at the polls, making him an unusual plea to continue campaigning for their GOP counterparts next year.
Musk and his affiliated groups invested $21 million into flipping the Wisconsin Supreme Court to conservative control, only to see his candidate defeated by 10 percentage points on Tuesday. The losing margin was four points larger than that of the only other Republican on the same statewide ballot, who was not tied to Musk's money, The Associated Press reports.
