A state Senate committee listened to hours of often-passionate testimony Wednesday on potential changes to election laws, including absentee ballots and voter IDs. The proposals and the reactions reflect continued battling over last year’s election.
The Senate Elections Committee is Senator Ruth Johnson (R-Holly), a former Republican Secretary of State.
“All we’re trying to do is make sure that we have systems in place that people can count on that there will be integrity in our elections,” Johnson said.
There’s no evidence of widespread fraud in last November s election.
In a separate news conference, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson says the bigger problem is the continued questioning that last year’s election wasn’t fair and accurate.
