FOIA Request to Town of Easton Regarding New Voter Registrations on November 7, 2024.
In our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Chippewa Valley Times have sent a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the Town of Easton. The request, sent on November 7, 2024, seeks records under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., specifically asking for a list of new voters who registered to vote on November 5, 2024.
As a media organization, we believe in the importance of transparency and holding public institutions accountable. Access to public records is essential for us to fulfill these professional responsibilities. Therefore, we have requested these records preferably in an electronic format for ease of access and dissemination.
We are confident that our role as media professionals qualifies us for a fee waiver under the FOIA provisions. We await a response from the Town of Easton and will continue to keep our readers informed about developments related to this request.
For any further queries or clarifications regarding this matter, please feel free to reach out to us at Chippewa Valley Times.
