Steve Bablitch will succeed Marc Marotta as the new secretary of the state Department of Administration. Flanked by Bablitch and Marotta, Gov. Jim Doyle announced the changing of the guard at a news conference Monday.
Doyle called Bablitch, the former secretary of the Department of Corrections and CEO of the Cobalt Corp., “one of Wisconsin’s great success stories.”
(Bablitch received his undergraduate and law degrees from UW-Madison.)
