The Iowa Senate voted 53 to 3 to amend the state constitution to repeal six month state residency and 60 day county residency requirements for voting. The measure would let the legislature set residency rules by statute and remove the old male voting provision, while keeping some residence time limits for certain races. Senator David Stanley said the change would allow any U.S. citizen living in Iowa to vote in presidential elections and reduce disenfranchisement for movers between states or counties.
