"Iowa Election Bill: Restrictions on Ballot Access and Felon Presidential Candidates"
TL;DR Summary
Two Democrats walked out of a House subcommittee meeting on an election bill in Iowa that would make it harder to challenge Donald Trump's place on the 2024 general election ballot. The bill would allow convicted federal candidates to appear on Iowa's ballot, ban ballot drop boxes, and change absentee ballot deadlines. Democrats criticized the bill, while Republicans argued it's about maintaining election integrity. The bill also limits challenges to presidential candidates and bans ranked-choice voting.
