A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to the Village Of Somers on November 7, 2024. The request was made by us at Kenosha Reporter, a media organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.
The request pertains specifically to new voter registrations that occurred on November 5, 2024. We have asked for a list of these new voters who registered on this specific date. This information is crucial in our ongoing efforts to provide transparency and hold public institutions accountable.
As a media organization, we rely heavily on access to public records to fulfill our professional responsibilities. Such records are instrumental in our work as they allow us to gather and report news effectively. In line with this, we have requested a fee waiver for the processing of this request given our role as media professionals.
We await a response from the Village Of Somers and will continue to keep the public informed about developments related to this matter.
