Polling problems

The Spectrum

As a poll worker for the election, it was certainly frustrating to open the polls and find the voting machines were not working.  With a long line of voters waiting to cast ballots, it was hectic for a time, but as we worked through it and were able to let people cast paper ballots, I have to say that all the voters we had were patient, kind, understanding and willing to work with us.

We had plenty of paper ballots we could use and didn’t get the machines working until after noon. We had a line of people waiting to vote all morning. Thank you to the great people of the Toquerville precinct who were so pleasant to work with. And thank you to the county who worked hard to help us through this election.
