Authorities in Maricopa CountyArizona, confirmed Tuesday morning at a news conference that around 20 percent of the vote centers in the county are experiencing issues.

โ€œIn about 20 percent of the vote centers โ€ฆ  when people will go and try to run the ballot through this tabulator, maybe one out of every five or so, of those ballots are not going through,โ€ said Maricopa Board of Supervisors Chair Bill Gates. โ€œItโ€™s not like both of the tabulators in these 20 percent of locations are having these issues. It might only be one.โ€

Gates said that the problem is not preventing people from casting their ballot, saying that voters can deposit their ballot in a drop box.

โ€œThose ballots will remain secure in there all day long and at the end of voting after 7 p.m., when everything is completed, these ballots will be taken out securely and delivered by a bipartisan team โ€ฆ down to here at the central tabulation center,โ€ Gates said.

โ€œEveryone is still being able to vote,โ€ Gates said. โ€œNo one is being disenfranchised โ€ฆ and none of this indicates any fraud.โ€

Earlier in the morning, Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward wrote there were โ€œBIG problems withโ€ vote tabulators, explaining there were โ€œtabulator โ€˜malfunctionsโ€™ at at least 6 places. DO NOT PUT YOUR BALLOT IN โ€˜BOX 3โ€ฒ TO BE โ€œTABULATED DOWNTOWN.โ€™ Maricopa will not be turning on the downtown tabulators today.โ€

Elections officials in Maricopa County, which was the subject of an Arizona Legislature-backed audit in mid-2021 over the 2020 election results.

โ€œIf youโ€™re at a polling place experiencing an issue with a tabulator, you have three options & your vote will be counted in each. 1) stay where you are and wait for tabulator to come online 2) drop your ballot in the secure slot (door 3) on tabulator 3) go to a nearby vote center,โ€ wrote Gates on Tuesday.
