Wisconsin’s Elections Commission wants to create an Office of Election Transparency.
Commissioner approved the plan this week. The idea is to open-up an office inside the Elections Commission to deal exclusively with election complaints, open records requests, and to restore some faith in Wisconsin’s electoral system. Commissioners say Wisconsin continues to deal with election doubts after the 2020 election. The new office would cost about two million-dollars, and Republican lawmakers would have to agree to include it in next year’s new state budget.
