Broken Voting Machines Reported in Several Swing States


Election Day is underway in America, and it’s already being riddled with problems

Voting machines are malfunctioning in some parts of Ohio, New York, Texas and other states, according to local media reports.

About six hours after polls opened on Tuesday, voters have reported malfunctioning machines in multiple locations, a common occurrence on Election Day that can lead to longer wait times.

Most reports have come from New York, Illinois, North Carolina, Kentucky, Texas and Ohio, according to Electionland, a nonprofit project in partnership with ProPublica.

Considering Ohio and North Carolina are both must-win states for Trump and Clinton, respectively, it may be long night before we know the states’ results — and the outcome will almost assuredly be challeneged by the losing campaign.

These broken machines aren’t just causing headaches in the aforementioned states. Chris Calvert, a voter in Philadelphia, wrote on Twitter: “No one can vote in our district today. Hundreds of angry voters.”
