Analysis Summary
Wisconsin has faced lawsuits and complaints alleging that Elon Musk violated state election bribery law by distributing $1 million checks to voters during the 2025 state Supreme Court race. The Wisconsin attorney general and other groups have filed civil suits challenging the giveaway program, which Musk ran through his PAC ahead of multiple elections.
