A bill for an act relating to the casting of provisional ballots by persons registering to vote on election day or when casting an in-person absentee ballot.

Summary

The bill changes Iowa law so that anyone who registers to vote on election day or when voting absentee in person must have their felony status verified against a state database. If the polling place lacks an electronic poll book, the voter receives a provisional ballot that is counted only after the absentee‑and‑special‑voters board confirms eligibility. This adds a uniform eligibility check and limits voting to those whose rights are restored.
