Can you tell me what exactly is going on? Is this happening at all precincts?

Iowa law clearly says that in order to VOTE you do not need ID. You just need to give the poll worker your name.

This seems to be in clear violation of Iowa law. And in Iowa city, nonetheless!!!!

Iowa City is 90 percent liberal, and those University of Iowa college students are nearly all liberal. It sounds like bullshit is happening there.

I have connections to officials high up in Iowa government and I have spoken to them about their efforts to ensure that attorneys are all Iowa polling locations, trying to fend off shennanigans like this. Can you please give me more details. If this is happening it needs to be stopped now. Please let me know what you know!
