Public Records from the Office of the Special Counsel

The records of the Office of the Special Counsel were turned over to the Assembly Chief Clerk on September 14, 2022.  The records listed on this web page are the records that were provided to the Assembly Chief Clerk in electronic and paper form. 

There are thirty-one zip files below for review. 

The first zip file contains the emails from coms@wispecialcounsel.org. 

The second zip file contains the paper documents that were received from the Office of the Special Counsel.  In the case of the paper files, the Assembly Chief Clerk’s office scanned them in and named them by any title or heading that appears on the top of the document.  All attempts were made to be as accurate as possible when labeling the documents.  The documents in the first two zip files appear as they were received by the Assembly Chief Clerk and no changes or alterations were made to any labeling of the documents.  Any redactions are redactions that were performed prior to the Assembly Chief Clerk receiving the documents.

The third zip file contains documents that were redacted by the Assembly Chief Clerk due to the attorney-client privilege.  Other documents are being withheld due to the attorney-client privilege or because the documents are notes or drafts, purely personal in nature, or entirely unrelated to the work of the Office of the Special Counsel.

The fourth zip file contains documents from the USB drive used by the Office of the Special Counsel.

There are 26 zip files containing the contents of the computers and accounts used by the Office of the Special Counsel. The contents have been made into smaller zip files so they are easier to download.  Even though the contents are split up into smaller files, all files are labeled as they were labeled by the Office of the Special Counsel.

The eighth zip file contains images and a video from a Tracfone used by the Office of Special Counsel.

The ninth zip file contains images and data from a Tracfone used by the Office of Special Counsel.

The Office of the Special Counsel’s website, Wisconsin Elections Review (www.wielectionreview.org), is no longer able to receive any submissions.  The website link is available to allow a review of the website and its contents.
