And a newly electedFollowing a pair of disappointing elections, Wisconsin Republicans are seeking to replace two state officials, whom the right has accused of election impropriety. One, Wisconsin Elections Commission administrator Meagan Wolfe, has been subject to years of baselessconspiracy theories, despite Republican-led investigations finding no significant election malfeasance.
The commission is nonpartisan, but became the target of Republican ire after the 2020 election, which saw President Joe Biden win the battleground state. Election fraud conspiracy theorists took aim at the WEC,“Those people demanded a scalp,” Heck said of election deniers. “Meagan became the convenient scapegoat.”
