LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Nevada election officials say a power outage at a Las Vegas-area polling place has been resolved, but long lines in Elko are delaying the reporting of statewide voting results.
Secretary of State Ross Miller's spokeswoman Pam duPre tells The Associated Press it's not clear how long the delay might be.
She says every voter in line will be allowed to vote.
Miller issued a statement saying that no results of any statewide race can be reported in any county until all polls across the state are closed.
Clark County Registrar of Voters spokesman Dan Kulin says the power outage happened about 5:45 p.m. at Schofield Middle School in southeast Las Vegas. It lasted about 45 minutes.
Kulin says voting machines have battery power, and no votes were lost.
