Enough voting machines?
We're doing a story on this in tomorrow's paper.
We'll try to get at what's creating the holdup in the voting machines, and SPOILER ALERT, it appears that the county won't get them in time for November.
At this point, Guilford County would be about 6 percent short on the machines that they wanted in the fall election. That could mean longer waits for people who want to vote in person. Fortunately, there are options to get around Election Day crowds.
Still, it must kind of stink for those who want to be old school about their voting, or get their "I voted" sticker. So do you think that it's going to hurt the election to not be able to have as many machines as possible?
