  • Essentially true. First you would have to get the other state to arrest Musk, which would be a massive chore on it’s own. The arresting state would be fully aware that Musk has essentially infinite resources and his lawyers would sue the shit out of them. The state would need to be prepared to spend millions or even tens of millions in the courts just for arresting him regardless of the turn out. Wisconsin would also need to spend millions trying to push through the extradition which Musk would fight with his armies of lawyers and pallets of money.



  • No. Districts are not monolithic. Even the most red districts have a lot on left-leaning voters. It even says in the article that although he went to red districts, it was primarily democrats at the town halls.

    In rural, deep red California, where last cycle a few hundred people showed up at such events, this turnout was historic. I heard from attendees who had never seen so many Democrats gather in their area before.

    This is still very important though. It gives democratic voters the ability to connect with other democrats in their area. Maybe they will now feel less isolated and be more willing to openly support democratic challengers in their district.
