Iowa court blocks 30 day voter residency rule
Secretary Melvin Synhorst agreed in Polk County District Court not to enforce Iowa's 30 day residency requirement for voters. Attorney Dan Johnston filed suit on behalf of Grinnell College philosophy instructor Thomas Davis who was denied a vote in the Grinnell school board election. The injunction aims to bar election officers from enforcing residency rules, a move Johnston says saves taxpayers money and upholds constitutional rights for new residents. The case centers on the 1972 Legislature's 30 day rule, replacing a six month requirement.
