In Central Iowa's Story County, which is home to approximately 100,000 residents and includes the city of Ames, there were reports of voting machines malfunctioning during the recent election. This raised concerns about potential delays in reporting the results.
A spokesperson for the Iowa Secretary of State's Office acknowledged the technical issues with tabulators in some precincts in Story County. However, it was emphasized that these issues did not prevent voters from casting their ballots. The problem mainly affected the speed at which results could be reported.
