“We know that voters are still able to be served. Voters can still drop off their ballots. We have teams throughout the Valley … that are ready to triage,”

Zach Shira, assistant county manager

Voter Adrian Pardee told KTAR News 92.3 FM she heard an election worker phoning for help with a printer problem, and said she'd try somewhere else, perhaps Tumbleweed in Chandler. AZ Family reported that most of the county's 254 voting locations ran smoothly. By 4:30 p.m., more than 188,000 voters had visited, short of the county's projection.
