Here are the 7 takeaways from the Wisconsin and Florida elections.

 


1/ Wisconsin rebuffs Trump: In a major upset, liberal Susan Crawford defeated conservative Brad Schimel, retaining the 4-3 liberal Supreme Court majority in Wisconsin. This is a significant blow to Trump and Musk. 2/ Musk's millions can't buy wins: Despite pouring tens of millions of dollars into the Wisconsin race, Musk's preferred candidate lost. This raises questions about the effectiveness of his money and brand in future elections. 3/ Wisconsin adds voter ID to state constitution: A GOP-backed referendum to enshrine Wisconsin's voter ID requirement in the state Constitution passed overwhelmingly, making it harder for future Democratic majorities to repeal the law.






4/ Wisconsin proves it's a purple state: Despite Trump's narrow win in 2024, Wisconsin voters rejected his preferred candidate in the Supreme Court race, showing the state's nuanced political views. 5/ GOP's growing margins in Florida: Republicans won two House seats in Florida, but with smaller-than-expected margins. This could leave congressional Republicans nervous about future elections. 6/ Democratic overperformance in Florida: Democrats cut margins by roughly half in districts Trump won by at least 30 points less than five months ago. This could be a warning sign for Republicans in future elections. 7/ Trumpification of Florida: Trump's endorsement helped Republicans win in Florida, solidifying his control over the GOP in his home state.
