Voting Machine Problems Surface in Ohio
Aug 8, 2006
CLEVELAND --
Election officials in Cuyahoga County have replaced seven of the 13
electronic voting machines assigned to a church in suburban Cleveland
because the seals were not intact.
Elections director Michael Vu says the seals were in place when the
machines were sent to the North Olmsted church, but they were either
completely or partially removed when checked at the polling place.
Tuesday's special election is the county's first since a slew of
problems in the May primary that led to delayed results and an outside
investigation.
Vu says he was told of the problem with the seals around noon Monday,
but the cause was not immediately known.
The seven machines were replaced as a precaution, as were the
touch-screen machines' memory cards.
