Tri-State area voters have expressed frustration with multiple issues happening at the polls. In New York and New Jersey voters have already experienced long lines and broken ballot scanners.


"One scanner was completely fine, one was temporarily down but quickly fixed and the third and last scanner was not working at all as of 6:30," a voter told PIX 11 News.

A voter in New Jersey said that voters were told to "come back in an hour" because the machines were not working properly.

"Already a problem in Union. The one voting machine in District 29 isn't working. People being told to come back in an hour," a voter in Union County, N.J. said.

Other voting locations were opened late. Some of these problems stem from New York not having early voting. Read the tweets below for updates.
