Senate okays postcard bill for federal voter registration
The Senate passed a bill to allow registration by mailing a postcard, sending it to the House with White House opposition. The 57 to 37 vote followed a month of filibuster, and opponents led by Sens. Allen and Fong warned of election fraud. The plan would create a voter-registration administration with the Census Bureau identifying voters and the Postal Service delivering cards. False registrations could bring up to a $10,000 fine and five years in prison.
