A steady stream of money, advertisements and activity from national political figures has flowed into Wisconsin and Florida ahead of elections Tuesday.

A steady stream of money, advertisements and activity from national political figures has flowed into Wisconsin and Florida ahead of elections Tuesday.

The biggest race is for a seat on Wisconsin's Supreme Court, but a pair of congressional special elections in Florida have drawn attention, too. Voters in Wisconsin will also consider a race for state superintendent and a constitutional amendment on voter ID.

Here are the key numbers to know that have shaped these elections.

The vast majority of the $80 million-plus spent since Jan. 1 on TV in these off-year elections has been in Wisconsin, where the contest between state judges Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel has been the most expensive state Supreme Court race in history, surpassing the state's 2023 campaign.

Wisconsin has seen more than $70 million in TV ads on the court race (plus a bit more on other races on the ballot), according to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact. Meanwhile, the special election in Florida’s 1st District has seen $3.4 million, and the one in the 6th District has seen $6.2 million through Election Day.
