The Washington County Times, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, has sent an official request for public records under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq.
In the pursuit of transparency and accountability in public institutions, we at the Washington County Times have requested a list of new voter registrations that were registered to vote on November 5, 2024. As part of our commitment to provide accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, access to these public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities.
