Arizona
Election Day got off to a rocky start when voters in one town outside Phoenix showed up to vote only to find their polling place had been foreclosed upon the day before.
Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes said the landlord of the building, which appears to be a strip mall, locked it overnight after workers already had set up the polling place. There are ballots inside the building, he said.
Fontes said his staff was working with the sheriff’s office to see whether they could forcibly enter the property to collect the ballots and equipment. In the meantime, he said, poll workers set up a temporary polling place in the parking lot.
