Judge Upholds Voter ID, Strikes Parts of 2017 Voting Law
(Worthy News) – An Iowa judge has upheld voter ID as allowable under the Iowa Constitution but struck down as unconstitutional portions of a 2017 voting reform law challenged by a Hispanic civil rights group and an Iowa State University student.
The law signed by former Gov. Terry Branstad requires voters to show certain forms of identification when voting at the polls, provide an identification number on absentee ballot applications and allows county auditors to reject ballots if they believe signatures don’t appear to match a voter signature on record.
District Court Judge Joseph Seidlin said in a ruling filed Monday that the state may require a voter ID at the polls. [ Source: VOA News (Read More…) ]
