FOIA Request to City of Kiel Regarding Same Day Registered Voters for 2024 Election on November 7, 2024.
We at EC Wisconsin News, a media organization dedicated to delivering comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, have formally requested records under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., from the City of Kiel. The specific request is for a list of new voters who registered to vote on November 5, 2024.
As an integral part of our journalistic duties, we believe in holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Access to public records is essential for us to fulfill these professional responsibilities.
In light of our role in disseminating information to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver as a media professional. We await a response from the City of Kiel and will continue to keep our readers informed about developments related to this request.
