Kiffmeyer unveils Photo ID bill as battle over election law changes begins

The anticipated battle over election law reforms kicked off today at the Capitol.

Minnesota Rep. Mary Kiffmeyer (R) unveiled a 40-page bill that would require various forms of official photo ID to vote.

The measure also would begin controversial provisional ballots and would, among other things, prohibit court-appointed guardians from helping disabled people vote.
