Voters Express Concern Over Polling Confusion, Malfunctions (Dallas, TX area)

[Lone_Star_Dem]

Election officials are offering answers Tuesday as some voters express concerns about polling location confusion and possible vote machine malfunctions.

FOX 4 reporter Adrian Arambulo witnessed multiple people being turned away from Dallas-area voting locales due to being unclear about where they were supposed to vote.

The voting location listed on early voting ballots is not the location where voters are instructed to go on election day. Instead, the proper location is the one listed on voter registration cards.

Some local voters also expressed concerns about voting problems, especially due to the closeness of the race, according to Bruce Sherbet of the Dallas Elections Office.

There were some voters who reported that the machines showed errors when they attempted to cast their ballot.

Sherbet told FOX 4's Krystle Gutierrez that there are emergency ballot boxes at every polling location, in case of machine malfunction.

From what I've heard it's a real mess up there in some areas. They even had snow on the ground compounding the problem. :(

And as for snow- it's all been gone for hours. It's in the mid 40s, sunny, and the streets are dry dry DRY.

I voted early, so can't speak to the polling problems. Hopefully, I have my caucus location correct; better double check!
