A Wisconsin appellate court has denied Attorney General Josh Kaul’s request to block Elon Musk from giving $1 million checks to two voters at an upcoming rally, just days before the state’s crucial Supreme Court election.
Kaul argued that Musk’s plan violates state election laws prohibiting financial inducements to voters, but the court’s ruling allows the payments to proceed.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court race has drawn national attention, with key issues like abortion rights and electoral maps at stake. Musk’s involvement, including large donations supporting conservative candidate Brad Schimel, has added further controversy.
Legal experts remain divided on whether Musk’s actions violate state or federal election laws, sparking a broader debate over campaign finance ethics and electoral integrity. The situation continues to unfold as election day approaches.
