Iowa Republicans passed a bill that would both shorten the state's early voting period and shave an hour off of Election Day voting. GOP Gov. Kim Reynolds just signed it into law, @sgrubermiller reports

🚨BREAKING: IA Governor has signed the new voter suppression law. This is the first major suppression law since the 2020 election. Expect litigation here and elsewhere GOP legislatures follow this path.

When there is, watch this space.👇

5. Time to ditch the First In Nation Iowa caucus. Iowa is not representative of Democrats.

There is no reason to let them have so much influence on our Party's Presidential nominating process.

Even though they are lying at least they try to seem legit by saying “it’s all about election integrity” or “we want to stop election fraud” when it comes to absentee voting or drop off boxes....but they can’t use that excuse with this law

7. help me out here. What's their argument for shortening early and same day voting?

what "election integrity" does this preserve, from their point of view?
