Tech billionaire and White House adviser Elon Musk will head to Wisconsin days before the pivotal state Supreme Court election there, into which he's sunk millions of dollars on behalf of the conservative candidate and become a central figure in the race.

Musk made the announcement early Friday morning on his social media platform X, where he said he would be giving out a pair of $1 million checks to people who attend his speech, with attendance limited to those who voted in the election.

It's the latest redoubling of Musk's efforts in Wisconsin, where he has endorsed conservative Judge Brad Schimel, a circuit court judge and former state attorney general who is also backed by President Donald Trump. State campaign finance filings show $3 million in donations from Musk to the Wisconsin Republican Party so far this year, and Musk's super PAC, America PAC, is the top outside spender in the Supreme Court race. The group has spent more than $12 million so far, according to the latest data available through the state's campaign finance portal Friday morning.
