This judicial race for an open seat on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court has drawn national attention as proxy war for President Donald Trump’s agenda, with Elon Musk and others in his circle spending record amounts to back Brad Schimel, a Waukesha County judge and former Wisconsin attorney general. Schimel faces Susan Crawford, a Dane County judge backed by Democrats. The seat will determine majority control of this swing state’s high court, which is expected to issue decisions about abortion rights and redistricting this year.
Florida held special elections in the 1st and 6th Congressional Districts today as well.
Crawford is projected to win. An estimated 91.7 percent of votes have been counted.
