Elon Musk’s candidate faced a resounding loss in a Wisconsin judicial race despite the world’s richest man pouring millions into the campaign, while Republicans avoided upsets in two critical US House seats in Donald Trump’s home state of Florida.

The votes were the first major elections since Trump took office in January, a chance for a gut-check from the electorate on the president’s sweeping effort to slash the size of government and, through tariffs and the promise of more tax cuts to come, remake the US economy. 

Taken together, Tuesday’s special election outcomes came to a draw. Republicans couldn’t break the 4-3 liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, while Democrats fell short in their longshot bids to win either of two heavily Republican House seats, which would’ve complicated the GOP’s efforts to advance Trump’s tax cut plan through Congress.
