As election nears and feds warn of cyber threats, Wisconsin election-security posts sit vacant

Six new state positions to help secure Wisconsin elections from cyber threats remain vacant months after being created, and members of the Elections Commission say Gov. Scott Walker’s administration has been the holdup to filling the jobs.

It’s now clear the positions won’t be filled before the Aug. 14 primary election. At least one commissioner and a Democratic state legislative leader say it’s critical that the roles are filled by the November midterms
