A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Village Of Suamico in Wisconsin regarding new voter registrations on November 7, 2024. The request was made by Green Bay Reporter, a media organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.
The specific records requested under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., were for a list of voters who registered to vote on November 5, 2024. This information is critical for our ongoing reporting and analysis of voting trends and patterns in the area.
As a media organization, we at Green Bay Reporter are committed to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Access to such public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. Given our role in disseminating information, we believe we are eligible for a fee waiver as a media professional.
We look forward to receiving this information from the Village Of Suamico and will continue our work in delivering comprehensive news coverage that serves our community.
