Trego, Wisconsin Public Records

Acceptable identification includes a Wisconsin driver's license, state ID card, certain other photo IDs, or proof of residence documents when registering on Election Day. As an unincorporated community, Trego doesn't hold its own municipal elections for mayor or city council. Instead, residents vote in town-level elections for the Town of Frog Creek, choosing town board supervisors and town clerk in April of odd-numbered years. Washburn County holds elections for county board supervisors, sheriff, clerk, treasurer, and other constitutional offices. Residents can locate their assigned polling place by visiting myvote.wi.gov and entering their address; the typical location for Trego-area voters depends on town ward assignments. Wisconsin makes numerous election records publicly available, including voter registration lists (available for purchase by eligible requesters for election related purposes), campaign finance reports (searchable at ethics.wi.gov), candidate filings, and precinct-level election results (available through the Wisconsin Elections Commission at elections.wi.gov and through Washburn County Clerk). Wisconsin voters can request absentee ballots online at myvote.wi.gov or by contacting their municipal clerk; applications must be received by the Thursday before the election, and ballots must be returned by 8 PM on Election Day to be counted. The state requires photo ID for absentee voting as well, with a copy submitted with the ballot application.
