At Milwaukee South News, we are committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs. In line with this commitment, we have submitted a request under the Wisconsin Open Records Law, §19.31 et seq., for records pertaining to new voter registrations that occurred on November 5, 2024.
Our role as a media organization 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 a media professional. We look forward to the City of South Milwaukee’s prompt response in order to continue our mission of delivering transparent and accountable journalism to our readership.
