It's election day. It is a rough start for Tippecanoe County's pilot satellite voting centers. Several voting locations were not ready to open at 6:00a.m. Some election workers say they couldn't get logged onto the system. Others had issues with verifying who is eligible to vote. You will hear from several disgruntled voters who were turned away at the polls, others who were happy to be in and out of the polling location within minutes.
Tippecanoe and Wayne counties are taking part in this project. Secretary of State Todd Rokita will be in Lafayette to observe how the vote center concept worked.
Stay tuned for continuing coverage on the vote center problems and if the election board will consider extending the time to vote. We will also bring you results when they start coming in after 6pm.
