Susan Crawford, the Democratic-backed candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court in the United States, defeated her main rival endorsed by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.  Susan Crawford beat Republican-backed Brad Schimel in a race that broke records for spending and was the highest-turnout Wisconsin Supreme Court election ever recorded.

Her victory cemented a liberal majority in the court for at least three more years and concluded an election that had become a proxy fight for the nation’s political battles.
