Musk, who has effectively made the contest a referendum on himself and his DOGE crusade.
Sunday night, during an elaborately choreographed rally in Green Bay, the world’s richest man cast the Wisconsin vote in near-apocalyptic terms. The outcome will determine who “steers the course of Western civilization,” he declared. “I feel like this is one of those things that may not seem that it’s going to affect the entire destiny of humanity, but I think it will.”
Victory in this crucial swing state would be wind beneath Musk’s wings. Republicans would read it as an endorsement of DOGE, and it would quiet growing GOP anxiety about the unpopularity of that agenda. For Musk, it would be definitive evidence of his political clout.
Defeat, on the other hand, would be seen as a humiliating setback for both Musk and President Donald Trump.
