Washington: Voting for the presidency continues in America. At some places, there have been reports of fake bombs and at some places, there have been reports of voting machines malfunctioning. Voting has also been affected due to bad weather. According to the Washington Post, results from some of the close-fought states that decide the outcome of the presidential race are likely to come as early as Tuesday night. Whereas in other states it is expected to take more time. Whereas the results of North Carolina and Wisconsin may come first.
Fulton County, Georgia, may be more likely to have results on Wednesday, according to preliminary information. While Michigan’s Secretary of State has said results should be expected by the end of the day on Wednesday. It could take a few more days in Arizona, Nevada and Pennsylvania.
Voting machines malfunction in central Iowa county
The reason behind the fear that it will take several days for the complete results to come is also that there has been a problem of voting machines malfunctioning in some places. Voting was also disrupted in America’s Central Iowa County due to malfunctioning voting machines. Voting machines are reported to have broken down in Story County, in central Iowa, which is home to about 100,000 people. This may lead to potential delays in reporting results. “We are aware of technical issues regarding tabulators in some areas of Story County,” said Ashley Hunt Esquivel, spokeswoman for the Iowa Secretary of State’s office. “The auditor is working with the vendor and our office to resolve this. This isn’t stopping anyone from casting a single vote, but it could have an impact on early results reporting.
Close fight between Kamala Harris and Trump
According to various surveys, there is a close contest between Republican candidate Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Even in swing states, there is a very close contest between the two candidates. In such a situation, this time it has become very difficult for the pollsters to predict who will become the next President of America. If the close contest continues in the swing state, we may have to wait for the election results of some more states to predict victory and defeat.
