Some polling places in the county are having problems with their tabulation machines, according to the chairman of the board of supervisors.
Gates said that about 20 percent of the locations have an issue with the tabulator where some of the ballots don't go through.
At least 44 of the 223 voting stations in the county are having problems with tabulators.
Gates' team is working to fix the problem. Voters can use a secure box to place their ballot. Ballots placed in the box will be counted in a secure location. The official in the video said that the ballots will be signature verified so we won't need to confirm identity.
Residents who arrive at sites with malfunctioning tabulators are reminded that they can still cast their votes.
If a tabulator doesn't work at the site, you can still vote. You can cast your ballot and put it in the ballot box. The poll workers on site at the voting location can help you cast your ballot.
The Arizona Republican party has embraced President Trumps stolen election lie with more fervor than any other state party. In the wake of the 2020 election, Republican state legislators demanded an audit of the process due to the fact that hundreds of ballots had been cast in the names of dead Arizonans. One ballot was cast in the name of a dead voter.
The Democrat who is overseeing the election in her role as secretary of state is running in the Arizona governor's race against the rising Republican star who endorsed Trump.
The department explained its protocol when a few people questioned the security of the ballot boxes.
The boxes will be tied with tape and taken to the election center. It said that anyone will be able to watch the process on our cameras.
There were reports that certain tabulation machines in the county were malfunctioning. There were long lines of people waiting to vote in Anthem, Arizona.
Two tabulators are in our house. There is a tabulator that is malfunctioning. 25 percent of the tabulators are being misread, which could be a printer issue, or it could be the tabulator itself, according to a poll volunteer. Voters have an option to put the ballot into box 3, he told them.
He said that it gets read whether it goes downtown or manually.
People in line are frustrated with the system crashes. Some people didn't trust the facility to handle the chain of custody with their ballot. The woman left in a huff and said she would return later.
Lake told voters who already checked in at the voting locations where the tabulators were having issues to stay put. She warned that the new location will not count as a valid location.
If you check in at a voting location where the tabulators don't work, you can ask to use the handicapped voting machine, or leave your ballot in a box to be counted later.
According to Rich Baris, the director of a right-leaning survey research firm, election officials were told to prepare for a large turnout on Election Day.
