| Judge Denies Emergency Motion From Crist Campaign To Extend Voting Hours |
| 2014-11-05 |
| [TAMPA.CBSLOCAL] Former Gov. Charlie Crist's ...the politically androgynous former governor of Florida... campaign filed an emergency motion to extend voting by two hours in Broward County due to voter confusion and malfunctions but a judge has denied that injunction. A judge denied the injunction to extend the Broward County voting hours. Crist's campaign will not appeal. According to the motion, one polling station was offline for more than an hour as people tried to cast ballots before work. Malfunctions with some voters' addresses also caused them to be bounced between various precincts and, according to the motion, ultimately the system did not register them and they were unable to cast regular ballots. Recent changes to voting districts caused much of the confusion. According to the motion, the conflicting information ended up discouraging many voters from casting their ballot. |
