The state’s Election Commission yesterday said Wisconsin’s de-centralized election management model helps keep the state’s voter information safe. Wisconsin has over 19-hundred local election managers. The Election Commission’s Meagan Wolfe said there are on-going election concerns, which is one reason why the commission is offering local clerks part of a million-dollars for computer and security upgrades.
