Bio
The Office of the Secretary of State is headed
by an elected Secretary of State, whose term of
office is four years. Wisconsin's Constitution
requires the Secretary of State to maintain the
official acts of the Legislature and Governor,
and to keep the Great Seal of the State of
Wisconsin and affix it to all official acts of
the Governor. In addition, the Office
administers program responsibilities set forth
in approximately 100 sections of the Wisconsin
Statutes, including issuing notary public
commissions; issuing notary authentications and
apostilles; recording annexations and charter
ordinances of municipalities; registering trade
names and trademarks; publishing legislative
acts; filing oaths of office; and filing deeds
for state lands and buildings.
