Elon Musk poured at least $446m into Republican-aligned political groups during the US midterms, well above his 2024 outlay, but Democrats won all five Senate contests where his America Pac spent most. In Texas, where his businesses are based, voters elected Democrat James Talarico to the Senate. Musk stayed largely silent throughout election night, joking online that data centres in space now looked rather appealing.
