No power cords at a predominately black precinct?

These people are just pure piles of ****.
 
Re: The 2018 midterm elections!

I think this kind of stuff makes me saddest of all. That our behavior has been lowered to that of 3rd world countries on election day.

This happens every election....

Just get Apple, Samsung, or any other smartphone maker to make these things. I can click a smaller area with greater accuracy with my thumb on my phone than it seems people can do with a stylus on these machines. There is no excuse to continue using shoddy tech for such an important event.

Man, whoever is in charge of elections in Georgia is not doing his job. That guy has shown himself incapable of that job or any job with even more responsibility.
 
Re: The 2018 midterm elections!

Porter County, IN opened some (12 total) polling locations late, way late. (One was 90 minutes late.) A judge ordered that they stay open later as a result. GOP lawyers now fighting ruling. (Porter Co. is swing in pres. elections; Donnelly wd needs to do well here.)
 
Re: The 2018 midterm elections!

This one's for you Hovey: Tribal IDs not accepted in Standing Rock ND

Other "hiccups" include - 4.5 hour lines b/c machines malfunctioning in GA; Voters wrongly being asked for ID in MO; 300,000 inactive voters in AL; Ballot scanners not working in NC; Polling sites opened late in AZ
