Wisconsin's electronic Campaign Finance Information System (CFIS) was introduced in 2009. CFIS has all reports covering activity from July 1, 2008 to present for candidates for state offices, and committees raising or spending money to support or oppose them. Reports are available to the public immediately after they are filed by the committee.
