The Democratic-backed candidate for Wisconsin Supreme Court has won, defeating President Donald Trump’s endorsed challenger. Susan Crawford’s victory Tuesday cements a liberal majority for at least more three years. In doing so she overcame massive spending from groups funded by billionaire Elon Musk on behalf of her opponent. Crawford defeated Republican-backed Brad Schimel in a race that broke records for spending and became a proxy fight for the nation’s political battles. Trump, Musk and other Republicans lined up behind Schimel, a former state attorney general and supporter of President Donald Trump. Billionaire megadonor George Soros and other Democrats backed Crawford. Her win keeps the court under a 4-3 liberal majority.
Republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine have won special elections in two Florida congressional districts. They were bolstered by President Donald Trump’s endorsement to fill vacant seats in reliably Republican strongholds. Patronis fended off a challenge from Democrat Gay Valimont even though she far outraised and outspent him. Fine won his race Tuesday against Democratic challenger Josh Weil for a seat vacated by Michael Waltz when he was tapped to become Trump’s national security adviser. The narrowing margins may signal a shift in public sentiment. It was driven by unusually strong Democratic enthusiasm in two of the most heavily Republican districts in the country.
