A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Town of Wyoming in Wisconsin on November 7, 2024. The request, issued by SW Wisconsin News, seeks information regarding new voter registrations that occurred on November 5, 2024.
As a media organization dedicated to comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at SW Wisconsin News believe in the importance of transparency and accountability in public institutions. Access to such public records is crucial for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities.
The specific request under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., is for an electronic format list of voters who registered on Election Day, November 5, 2024. This data will provide insight into the number of citizens who utilized same-day registration to participate in the electoral process.
In line with our role as a media outlet disseminating information to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver for this request. We remain committed to providing our readers with up-to-date and factual information about their local government activities.
We await a response from the Town of Wyoming's clerk office and will continue our work towards promoting transparency and accountability within our community.
