WASHINGTON/ATLANTA–Problems with voting machines were preventing some Americans from casting ballots in a dozen states in the congressional elections on Nov. 6, rights advocates said, citing complaints about registration problems, faulty equipment, and intimidation throughout early balloting.
Broken voting machines were reported in at least 12 states by noon on Nov. 6, according to an “election protection” coalition of more than 100 groups that set up a national hotline for reporting irregularities.
