AMERICA VOTES: 2022 Midterm Elections are underway

Arizona election officials report significant number of tabulation machine problems

The 2022 Midterm Elections are underway and Americans across the country are casting their ballots which will decide the direction of the country.

The November 8th midterm elections will also determine control of both the House and Senate—and as usual is often decided by just a few seats which will ultimately change the balance of power.

Important races in battleground states like Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and Pennsylvania will establish what gets done in Washington D.C. over the next two years.

This election year is weighted down by major economic turmoil and rampant crime.

But, just hours after Election Day polls opened on the West Coast, Arizona officials in Maricopa County said that about 20% of their polling sites were experiencing issues with tabulation machines.

The Chairman to the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors said technicians were working to solve the problem as quickly as possible.

Early voting totals are already pointing to a record-breaking turnout for a non-Presidential election year.
