Were illegal absentee ballot requests made in Muscatine and Floyd counties?

That's what Iowa investigators are trying to figure out.

The Division of Criminal Investigation says a Muscatine County campaign worker for the Democratic Party allowed his mother to sign a ballot request form for him when he wasn't home.

In Floyd County, D.C.I. is looking into three reports of someone filling out ballot requests without the voters knowledge.

It's a felony in Iowa to falsify ballot request forms.
