Critics Clash Over Kansas Election Fraud Bill
The Kansas debate on Kobach's election fraud bill drew criticism from NOW and the Kansas Equality Coalition. Critics warned it would hurt working women who change names and those undergoing gender reassignment, and that it could end door-to-door voter drives by requiring proof of citizenship. Kobach defended the measure, citing 59 irregularities involving 221 ballots since 1997 and urging administrative fixes to address concerns. The committee chair noted broad GOP support and urged passage with clarified rules.
