Susan Crawford prevailed against Brad Schimel's illegal campaign, which was funded by record support of something like $26M of Elon's money. Liberal democracy prevailed. This is a tiny glimmer of hope.

When you call his campaign illegal, are you referring to Musk's thinly veiled attempt to bribe voters?

On another note, to Schimel's credit, he accepted the results of the election and conceded, unlike Trump and Kari Lake.

Schimel told his supporters he had conceded to Crawford, leading to yells of anger. One woman began to chant, “Cheater, cheater!”

“No,” Schimel said. “You’ve got to accept the results.”
