Whatever, some states, including Iowa where I live, are tightening down on the election laws making it more difficult to vote by shortening the period of early voting and restricting the procedure regarding absentee ballots, changing the conditions that prevailed in the recent election, ostensibly owing to the emergency conditions resulting from the pandemic.
