On Tuesday Chatham County voters headed to the polls for the long awaited primary election.
During an interview with Chatham County Board of Elections Member, Antwan Lang, he stated, “From my perspective, the biggest issue was the set-up process.
The problems led to several polling stations remaining open beyond 7 p.m. on election day.
Chatham County Superior Court Judge James Bass was requested by the Board of Elections to rule on several polling locations to remain open until 9 p.m. election day due to major hindrances, and specifically polls that opened an hour later than was scheduled.
Another solution is that every poll should be properly equipped with power sources in case of a power outage, the machine will continue to function” continued Lang.
