The Wisconsin Elections Commission oversees how Wisconsin runs and enforces elections; it has been drawn into a bribery probe connected to a March 2025 town hall in Green Bay.
The Wisconsin Elections Commission has referred two complaints to the Brown County district attorney over claims that Elon Musk offered $1 million to voters to influence the 2025 Wisconsin Supreme Court election. Prosecutors have 40 days to respond. Musk’s team argues the offers were free speech. The complaints cover three voters who received checks and a $100 incentive for signing a petition opposing activist judges. The case follows a record-breaking, $100 million-plus spending on the race, which Crawford won by 10 percentage points.
