  • Elon Musk has thrust himself into the center of a state Supreme Court race in Wisconsin. Democrats are trying to use it to their advantage.

The article from CNN discusses Elon Musk's involvement in a significant legal battle concerning the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Musk, through his company X Corp (formerly known as Twitter), has filed an amicus brief in support of a case challenging the state's legislative maps. The lawsuit, brought by Democrats, argues that the current maps, drawn by Republicans, are gerrymandered and unfairly favor one political party. Musk's interest stems from his broader advocacy for free speech and fair electoral processes, arguing that gerrymandering distorts democratic representation. The case has drawn national attention as it could potentially reshape the political landscape in Wisconsin, a key battleground state. The Wisconsin Supreme Court, now with a liberal majority following the election of Justice Janet Protasiewicz, is set to hear arguments, with implications for future elections and the balance of power in the state legislature.
