Election skeptics from across Wisconsin are pushing for the GOP-controlled state Senate to fire the state’s top nonpartisan election official.
Wolfe is one of the most respected elections officials in the nation. She has served more than 10 years at the Wisconsin Elections Commission and the body that preceded it. She also has served as president of the
and chair of the bipartisan Electronic Registration Information Center, which helps states maintain accurate voter rolls. Several local election officials and voting rights advocates testified Tuesday in support of Wolfe’s reappointment. Rock County Clerk Lisa Tollefson voiced concern that removing Wolfe would mean getting rid of an experienced, guiding hand for Wisconsin’s more than 1,800 municipal clerks who actually run elections, many of whom are new and inexperienced. Her concerns echo those of national elections expertsin Wisconsin, where the deciding margins are routinely razor thin.
Republican Sen. Daniel Knodl, who chairs the Senate elections committee, said he had not yet decided whether to schedule a vote on sending Wolfe’s reappointment to the full Senate for consideration.
