Of all the states, Wisconsin has long had a reputation as the "cleanest" when it comes to elections. Although voter fraud is virtually non-existent in the United States at large nowadays, Republican officials uniformly raise the issue as a mask of their real intent -- to suppress the vote among blocs of citizens who seem more likely to vote against GOP candidates. It's basically a matter of changing the rules of the game during the game itself in order to favor one side. As you noted, if any fraud is occurring, it's being perpetrated by the Grand Old Party.
