A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Town Of Wells on November 7, 2024, by WC Wisconsin News. The request sought information regarding new voter registrations that occurred on November 5, 2024.
As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at WC Wisconsin News are keenly interested in the list of voters who registered on the said date. We believe that access to this information is crucial for fulfilling our professional responsibilities, which include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public.
The request was made under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., and we expressed a preference for receiving the data in an electronic format. As a media organization involved in gathering and reporting news to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver.
We await a response from the Town Of Wells as we continue our mission to keep our readers informed about their local government's activities.
