Tech billionaire and Republican megadonor Elon Musk is among the biggest losers of election night in the U.S. ㅤ He doled out around $446 million — the most a non-candidate has ever spent on an election, including over $200 million on Texas-related efforts. ㅤ But Musk’s preferred candidates across the country were swamped, losing almost everywhere. ㅤ His plans for a buildout of data centers across Texas are especially in doubt after Democrat Gina Hinojosa won a surprise victory over incumbent Greg Abbott in the state’s gubernatorial race. ㅤ “Data centers in space looking pretty appealing right now,” Musk wrote on X on Wednesday morning, jumping off the results to boost an idea he’s trying to pursue. ㅤ He quickly followed that with a joke about election interference, writing, “Guess my election-interfering space lasers didn’t work this time.” ㅤ Head to the link in our bio to read about what Musk should now brace for as Democrats take control of the U.S. Congress. ㅤ 📷 Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images
