Elon dumped 20 million in the race. Republican money flooded in from everywhere.

That’s not quite true..

“Now, the Wisconsin court race is seen as an early test of his prowess outside of Washington. Musk endorsed Schimel in January and has donated $3 million to the Republican Party of Wisconsin”

“A Better Wisconsin Together Political Fund, a union-supported electioneering group, has ponied up over $6 million to advance Crawford. In other big outlays, Soros has given $2 million to the state Democratic Party, while Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, another billionaire, gave $1.5 million. And California venture capitalist Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn, donated $250,000.”

There was a lot of outside influence from both sides in Wisconsin.

Locally, in my little town of less than a 4,000 population, a referendum was shot down to tear down and rebuild a state of the arts high school. Last I heard the asking amount was 25/30 million dollars, of course it would end up costing local taxpayers a big hike in property taxes if liberals had their way. Locals are saying remodel and fix what needs to be fixed instead.
All liberals running for local Office here lost their bids for election.

Interesting though President Trump won Wisconsin and had endorse Schimel.
President Trump winning Wisconsin was the bottom line though I was happy about.
