FOIA Request to Town of Ahnapee Regarding New Voter Registrations on November 7, 2024.
We at Green Bay Reporter, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, have requested records under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., from the Town of Ahnapee. The request specifically asks for a list of new voters who registered to vote on November 5, 2024.
As a media organization involved in gathering and reporting news to the public, access to public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. These include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Given our role in disseminating information, we believe we are eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals.
We await a response from the Town of Ahnapee regarding this request and will continue our work in providing comprehensive news coverage for our readers.
