A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Town of Berry regarding new voter registrations on November 7, 2024.
As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Madison Reporter requested records under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., specifically for a list of voters who registered on November 5, 2024.
Our role as media professionals involves gathering and reporting news to the public. Access to public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities, which include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Given our role in disseminating information, we believe we are eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals.
We look forward to receiving these records in electronic format from the Town of Berry. This information will contribute significantly towards our ongoing efforts in ensuring transparency and accountability in local government affairs.
