Susan Crawford, a liberal candidate known for her support of abortion rights and net neutrality, has won a ten-year term on the Wisconsin supreme court, by a solid margin of 56%-to-44% with 66% of the vote counted. The win preserves the narrow liberal majority on the court. It's a stinging defeat for Elon Musk, who poured about twenty million dollars into defeating her.

YEAH!!!! Good news!
I read this morning from Elon that he 'expected to lose' but something something strategy. Okay, idiot. EVERYONE saw you trying to buy the election, you know that, right????
Also read that he resembles a bag of milk and now I can't stop laughing every time I see him.
Yay for Wisconsin and it's Voters. Boo for Florida's.
Rade: Yes, we need as much as we can get.
Ami: I guess he always tries to save face. It can't be fun to spend $20 million on cheating and still lose.
Bohemian: Those Florida districts were so red they were always a long shot. But a state supreme court majority is a lot more important than a couple of House seats.
That's good news.
Indeed!
I run a polling site in Milwaukee. In that voting ward, it was Crawford 485, Schlemiel 51.
P.S.: Bohemian, "it's" means "it is". "its" (no apostrophe) is the posessive form. I used to be a writing teacher.
Anon: You must work in an unusually progressive area.
Everybody makes typos occasionally. It's incredibly petty to call attention to something so trivial in somebody's comment. Note that in my post today about easily-confused words, I never identified a specific individual as making any of those errors, even though I've seen every single one of them on people's blogs.
