Pollbook Problems Plague Some Detroit Precincts: Report

DETROIT, MI — Ballot issues were plaguing some Detroit precincts Tuesday, according to reports.

The Detroit branch of the NAACP tweeted about 7:30 a.m. that certain polling locations were experiencing computer glitches.

Some voters received in-person ballots with numbers that appeared in an electronic pollbook to have already been assigned to absentee ballots for different people, according to FOX 2, which reported that affected voters were instructed to complete a provisional ballot to be counted later. The issue was resolved by mid-day and affected a small number of precincts, FOX 2 reported, although the cause of the problem remained undetermined Tuesday afternoon.
