Breaking News in Philly: Multiple Machine Problem Reports
Published by alanon November 4, 2008in Election 2008. 0 Comments
We are receiving reports from multiple polling places in Philadelphia that voting machines are out of order or did not arrive at the location. This is causing long lines–we received one report that a line has reached more than 500 people.
