Democrats were the clear winners in election contests on Tuesday that offered a temperature check on the popularity of Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
In Wisconsin, Susan Crawford, a liberal judge backed by Democrats, won a seat on the state supreme court, defeating her conservative opponent Brad Schimel by 10 points (Trump carried the state by one point in November). Crawford won despite Musk and allied groups spending a staggering $25m on Schimel’s behalf. Every single county in Wisconsin shifted in Democrats’ favor compared to the 2024 election.
