Online voter registration eyed in Iowa election bill shift
Iowa Senate backed an electronic voter registration measure 26 to 20 as part of possible broader election reform. A House bill would set an absentee ballot receipt cutoff with a military exception and may be folded into a larger package after negotiations. Senator Jeff Danielson urged keeping the issue alive to build bipartisan support.
