Denver beset with voting problems

Denver has been beset with extremely long lines at the vast majority of the "Vote Centers" throughout the city.  Wait times have been up to an hour and a half long and voters have been seen leaving many of the polling locations without voting.  

Common Cause is a leading partner in FairVote Colorado.  I am the Executive Director of Colorado Common Cause, and together with attorneys for FairVote and other parties, am on my way to the Denver district court right now to file for an injunction to extend the voting hours in Denver.  The polls are scheduled to close at 7pm, and we will be asking for the hours to be extended to at least 8pm and hopefully later to ensure that everyone who has attempted to vote today is able to.

Electronic Voting Problem In Westlake Ohio

I just returned from the voting location at St. Ladislaus Catholic Church in Westlake Ohio.  The workers were discussing the fact that they did not have sufficient electronic voting cards to enable them to utilize all voting machines concurrently.
