The strategic abstentions of the three Democrats on the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) resulted in the failure of a motion to reappoint embattled WEC Administrator Meagan Wolfe to a second four-year term.

Wolfe has been the highest-ranking state elections official since 2018. She has drawn criticism for her administering of the 2020 presidential and 2022 midterm elections.
