  • Late in the day on October 29, 2010 the Democratic Party of Wisconsin e-mailed a public records request to Wisconsin county and municipal clerks for information about the November 2, 2010 General Election.

  • Many clerks have asked the Government Accountability Board for guidance on how to respond to this request.

  • G.A.B. staff will review the request, confer with the Democratic Party of Wisconsin as necessary, and communicate with clerks as soon as possible (not before Tuesday’s election).

  • Clerks need not allow the request to interfere with their election preparations and duties.
