DNC ad: Musk trying to buy seat on Wisconsin Supreme Court
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is taking out a series of ads in Wisconsin newspapers accusing Elon Musk of attempting to buy a state Supreme Court seat ahead of the election Tuesday.
The ads, being released starting Friday ahead of a critical Wisconsin Supreme Court race that will determine the balance of power on the court, come as Musk has increasingly funneled money in the race to boost conservative Brad Schimel against liberal Susan Crawford.
The race is officially nonpartisan but it is playing out as a partisan battle, with Republicans backing Schimel and Democrats backing Crawford.
The DNC said in a release that it is “blanketing” more than a half dozen local Wisconsin newspapers to call out Musk, following its announcement that it plans to reach 2 million voters to rally support for Crawford.
