Voters in Wisconsin will head to the polls on Tuesday for a state election that has gained nationwide attention and donations.
The marquee race is for the state Supreme Court, where voters will decide if liberals maintain control of the court. The contest between liberal Dane County Judge Susan Crawford and conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel has drawn millions of dollars in outside money, including from billionaire Elon Musk.

Also on the ballot is the race for Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction superintendent. The choice is between incumbent Jill Underly, who is backed by the teachers' union, and consultant Brittany Kinser, a supporter of the private school voucher program who is endorsed by Republicans.

Lastly, voters will choose whether to protect the state's voter photo ID laws in the Wisconsin Constitution. Currently, Wisconsin voters are required to present a valid photo ID, such as a driver's license, U.S. passport, or military ID card. Absentee voters must have a copy of their ID on file with their local clerk. Voters without a photo ID on Election Day can still cast a provisional ballot and then provide their ID by the Friday after the election.

Republicans who control the state Legislature rushed earlier this year to get a proposed constitutional amendment on the April 1 ballot that would enshrine the current voter ID laws.
Democrats argue the laws are too strict and make it difficult for some people to vote.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.
