Green Party gains ballot access in Iowa statewide
Green Party supporters lined up at county auditor offices across Iowa to register under the new option on voter forms. The party, with about 2.23 percent in the last presidential vote, aims to maintain ballot status by fielding a governor candidate in 2002 and winning at least 2 percent. Hart noted the change will aid organizing and primaries, while staff at Johnson County objected to a planned green cake celebration.

Iowa counties fail to inspect eateries per state law
More than 80 percent of Iowa counties inspect restaurants and grocery stores fewer than three times yearly, violating a 1997 mandate. With 5,000 illnesses since 1994 and 50 outbreaks, health officials warn inspections must rise though staff shortages limit visits. Linn Johnson Black Hawk counties largely self-inspect, averaging about one visit annually, prompting calls for incentives and funding to meet standards.
