Governor Walker has opened up about President Trump's administration's request for voter data from states to investigate election integrity.

Walker said the final say on what gets turned over rests with the Wisconsin Elections Commission.

"The commission is independent from me, it's one of those things where they're following the guidelines and the rules of things they can make available," Governor Walker said. "The things that require a financial commitment, they've asked for that."

44 states are refusing to supply the Voter Integrity Commission with voter information.
