3. Oklahoma, but
she does not oversee elections, as far as I can tell. We have an Election Board the oversees the election process. I don't know who sits on this board.

on edit: He's been there FOREVER. I interviewed him when I was a journalism student at the UW in the 70's! Anyway, he's a bit bizarre, but he's a Democrat.

11. But he's not in charge of counting votes
In Wisconsin, the State Elections Board has overseen elections for quite a while. Recently it was combined with the Ethics Board to become the Government Accountability Board.
