| Iowa Judge Sides With Trump Campaign, Voids 50,000 Absentee Ballot Requests |
| 2020-09-01 |
| [EpochTimes] An Iowa judge ordered a local county auditor to invalidate 50,000 absentee ballot requests, agreeing with a Trump campaign argument that a local elections commissioner broke the law by pre-filling the applications with voters’ personal information. Judge Ian Thornhill ordered Linn County Auditor Joel Miller, a Democrat, to notify the affected voters in writing that their absentee ballot requests can’t be processed because they shouldn’t have been pre-filled with their personal information. The affected voters would have to fill out new requests or vote in person on Election Day; Miller said he would comply with the order and send new blank forms to the voters in September. The Trump campaign has filed similar challenges in other counties in Iowa. |
