Elon Musk spent at least $225 million in Texas. The governor-elect who sued for Abbott emails and vowed a data center freeze won anyway

Elon Musk directed at least $225 million of his midterm spending to Texas, according to OpenSecrets data NPR reported . Texas is home to the headquarters of Tesla and SpaceX, and on Tuesday its voters handed Democrats the governor’s office, a U.S. Senate seat, and the state House anyway. Democrat Gina Hinojosa unseated three-term Gov. Greg Abbott , becoming the state’s first Latina governor and ending a Republican hold on the office that began in 1995. James Talarico defeated Republican Ken Paxton , the first Democratic U.S. Senate win in Texas since 1988.
