Flaw in Polk Primary Law Forces Ballot Conflicts
Des Moines reports a major flaw in Polk county primary law that bars candidates not residing in Polk from appearing on the county ballot. The issue blocks gubernatorial opponents and non Polk contenders, prompting Senate debate and proposed amendments to allow outside candidates and to print women on county ballots. The session also moves to ban Sunday baseball and considers multiple bills on taxes, libraries, and state institutions.
