Voting Machines DOWN Across New York City
A mere coincidence?
Officials in Richland County, S.C., are looking into reports by voters that their voting machines were selecting the opposite candidates they chose.
Election Day got off to a rocky start when voters in one town outside Phoenix showed up to vote only to find their polling place had been foreclosed upon the day before.
Texans submitting ballots in early voting reported problems with voting machines switching some of their selections, a problem state officials said was connected to Hart eSlate machines used in about 30 percent of counties in the state.
Voters in Greater Cincinnati encountered long lines and a few technical glitches as they cast ballots Tuesday morning.
Election officials said voters and poll workers were confused by a change in the voting machine system there that now alerts voters if they have “under voted,” or left some races on their ballots blank.
How many more are there? Is there something behind all this? And, if the Dims lose, does it give them wriggle room to take it to the courts?

Election nightmares: Power outages, old machines and ballot deficiencies @ Election nightmares: Power outages, old machines and ballot deficiencies
Every election. Same thing.
Rhode Island: Some polls had a late start because of technical issues or workers arriving late.
All polls operational. Several polls opened a bit late due to pollworkers not reporting for duty or issues entering a complex password to start the voting machine. Alternate pollworkers were immediately assigned and our technicians resolved password issues quickly. #ElectionDay — RI Board of Elections (@RI_BOE) November 6, 2018
Pennsylvania: The judge of elections had a medical emergency and was unable to open one polling place in Pittsburg, according to the Pittsburg Post-Gazette. The equipment needed to start the ballot machines was also not on site, and at 9:15 a.m. — more than two hours after the polling was slotted to begin — the machines were still not in service.
Tennessee: At a polling place in Knoxville, voters who showed up to the middle school that housed a polling site had to cast paper ballots as the location had a power outage Tuesday morning and its generator failed as well, CNN reports.
South Carolina: The Richland County Elections Director told CNN that he was seeing more frequent issues with calibration for older voting machines — meaning the wrong candidate was being accidentally selected.
North Carolina: The North Carolina State Board of Elections released a statement explaining that in some polling locations, high humidity was causing issues with ballots being read by voting machines.
Texas: One precinct in Arlington, Texas ran out of enough paper ballots while dealing with machine issues, according to CNN.
