MADISON, Wis. (AP/WBAY) — UPDATE: The Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair, Ben Wikler, released a statement on Elon Musk’s post, saying that he should “be brought to justice” for the offer.

State AG announces legal action after Elon Musk says he’ll talk in Wisconsin and give $2 million to petition signers

Musk said he was clarifying Sunday's event is for people who signed a petition against "activist judges," not people who voted in the Supreme Court race.

“Elon Musk has committed a blatant felony by offering money for votes in order to help Brad Schimel. Musk’s illegal election bribery scheme to put Brad Schimel on the Supreme Court is a chainsaw attack on democracy and the rule of law in Wisconsin and our nation.

Elon Musk should be brought to justice for his illegal attempt to buy votes for Brad Schimel, and Brad Schimel should immediately condemn Musk’s crimes and disavow his continued involvement in his campaign. If Schimel does not immediately call on Musk to end this criminal activity, we can only assume he is complicit.

Law enforcement must act now before this goes any further. Musk’s crime to assist Brad Schimel has already been committed, and if Elon Musk sets foot in Wisconsin, he should be placed in handcuffs and held accountable—just like any other criminal. Musk can have his day in court, but he cannot buy the court.”

Billionaires are not only running this country now, they are trying to buy the country with million dollar checks.

Zuckerbucks were given to election officials in over 200 WI cities and without any strings attached.

Apples and oranges excuse making.

Zuckerbucks were given to election officials in over 200 WI cities and without any strings attached.

Put non state employees into election offices often running the show.

WI just voted to end it.

During the 2020 presidential election, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative—led by tech billionaire Mark Zuckerberg and his wife—donated more than $400 million to local election offices in 47 states under the guise of alleviating the burden of COVID-19-related costs.1 The bulk of these funds were funneled through the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), a left-leaning non-profit with significant ties to various progressive groups and the Obama administration.2-3While marketed as “COVID-19 Response Grants,” in many states, these funds (or “Zuckerbucks”) appeared to have little to do with offsetting pandemic-related expenses.4 Instead, the infusion of cash went toward boosting Democrat turnout in several swing states.5 In fact, grants were disproportionately siphoned to left-leaning jurisdictions.6 For example, in Pennsylvania, nine out of every 10 dollars that flowed into the state went to counties that voted for Biden.7 And in Georgia, Biden counties got nearly four times more Zuckerbucks per registered voter than Trump counties.8Preliminary data showed that Wisconsin was no exception and that at least $9 million in Zuckerbucks were poured into the state.9 But new data has painted a more complete picture, revealing that Zuckerbucks were an even bigger problem than previously estimated.

Zuckerbucks

State and local governments should be prohibited from accepting funding from private individuals and third parties, as occurred in 2020.

The Wisconsin "Zuckerbucks" Problem: New Data Reveals Private Funding of Election Offices Was More Widespread Than Initially Estimated

Given the proliferation of Zuckerbucks in 2020, Wisconsin should be the next state to safeguard their elections from outside influence.

Dude, take mark hemingway. He is just a cog in the wingnut noise machine. You posted an opinion piece.

From your linked #11 article.

"Election administration is different from community to community, and what election departments needed to make ends meet in 2020 reflected those local differences.

The COVID-19 Response Grant program came into place because Congress did not fully fund local election departments during the pandemic. The goal of the program was to ensure election officials had the resources they needed to conduct safe, secure elections for their community.

There were no partisan questions in the grant applications. CTCL COVID-19 Response grant funding decisions were not made on a partisan basis. As demonstrated by the jurisdictions across the political spectrum that received money, partisan considerations played no role in the availability or awarding of funding."
