Letter to the editor: In the billionaire's pocket

To the editor,

Every once in a while, when the pot is enormous, I buy a lottery ticket. My joke is always that I will buy a Supreme Court justice with my winnings. Har de har har. 

But now we actually have someone buying a state Supreme Court justice! Elon Musk is kicking in millions of dollars to tilt our state election toward Brad Schimel and away from Susan Crawford.

Once elected, Brad Schimel will be in Musk’s pocket. I prefer that our state Supreme Court NOT be swayed by a billionaire who has probably never even been to Wisconsin. I support Susan Crawford and hope you will, too.
