FOIA Request to City of Appleton 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 request under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., to the City of Appleton. The request, dated November 7, 2024, seeks information about new voter registrations that occurred on November 5, 2024.
As a media organization dedicated to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public, access to such records is essential for us. This data will enable us to report accurately on the number of same-day registered voters in the recent election and analyze any potential impacts or trends that may emerge from this information.
We believe our role as media professionals qualifies us for a fee waiver for this request. We are eagerly awaiting a response from the City of Appleton and will continue our efforts to keep our readers informed about local government affairs.
