Des Moines Assembly Prepares Quick Primary Law Amendment
Des Moines Iowa September 1 The thirty second general assembly in special session opened with 2 pm adjourned until 10 am next day. Lawmakers named primary election committees and discussed amending the primary law to address senatorial vacancy rules. Republicans formed caucus committees and the elections committee planned a joint caucus on the senatorial issue. Most members expect rapid drafting of a bill to adjust the primary law with a goal of a strict party primary. While legal questions linger about restricting participation to party ticket voters some scheme to exclude nonmembers from party affairs is anticipated. No new legislation bills are expected this session due to lack of committees and uncertainty over enactment.
