Arkansas: legislature passes instant-runoff procedure for overseas voters

The Arkansas News Bureau reports: Another bill that passed the Senate, HB 1509 by Rep. Horace Hardwick, R-Bentonville, would allow voters who are overseas to use "instant runoff" ballots that allow making a second choice when voting in the primary or general election.

Both bills passed 35-0. Steele's bill goes to the House. Hardwick's bill goes to the governor. -- Arkansas News Bureau - House approves school funding appropriation
