Elon Musk's America PAC offers Wisconsin voters $100 to sign a petition against activist judges, fueling controversy and high-stakes spending in a heated state Supreme Court race.

Elon Musk's America PAC is raising eyebrows—and perhaps voter turnout—in Wisconsin by offering a $100 incentive to registered state voters who sign a petition opposing "activist judges." The offer extends to referrals, with voters earning another $100 for each person they persuade to sign. If you thought modern elections couldn't get any spicier, well, here you are.

The PAC’s petition reads: "Judges should interpret laws as written, not rewrite them to fit their personal or political agendas." Signers must provide their contact details, including name, email, phone number, and mailing address.

In what feels like a high-stakes chess game, early voting for the crucial April 1 election has already started. The contest pits former GOP attorney general Brad Schimel against Susan Crawford, a circuit court judge backed by the Democratic Party. While technically a nonpartisan race, the partisan undertones are unmistakable.

America PAC’s involvement isn't new—it's already poured millions into the Wisconsin Supreme Court contest, according to campaign finance filings. Liberal megadonor George Soros also stepped into the arena, donating $1 million to the Democratic Party of Wisconsin earlier this year. That party, in turn, funneled $2 million to Crawford's campaign.

Musk himself has been vocal, tweeting in January: "Very important to vote Republican for the Wisconsin Supreme Court to prevent voting fraud!" His PAC, as described on its X account, supports candidates who advocate for secure borders, sensible spending, safe cities, a fair justice system, free speech, and self-protection. Quite the ambitious grocery list!

With millions already spent and incentives like $100 payouts now on the table, this election is shaping up to be anything but ordinary. Let’s be honest: when billionaires are playing tug-of-war over a state Supreme Court seat, the stakes aren't just high—they're stratospheric.

Editor's Comments

Okay, so let me get this straight: we're now paying people to oppose judges? Musk's PAC is turning civic engagement into a cashback program, and honestly, I can't decide if this is genius marketing or just plain surreal. Either way, Wisconsin voters are suddenly $100 richer for their opinions—capitalism meets democracy in the most bizarre way.
