SB 397

Under current law, the Elections Commission establishes a fee, by rule, for

obtaining a copy of the official voter registration list. The fee amount is an amount

estimated to cover both the cost of reproduction and the cost of maintaining the list

at the state and local level.

Under this bill, a person may obtain a copy of the official voter registration list

for Wisconsin, or any portion of the list, electronically by paying a fee of $250 or less

as established by the the Elections Commission. The bill authorizes the commission

to charge an additional fee for providing a copy of the list in physical form in order

to cover the cost of reproduction and postage, if any.
