According to media reports, some workers told voters to go across the street to a different precinct, but you can only cast a ballot at your own location, and some voters became frustrated and simply left without voting.

After an hour and a half, voters realized the machine was in a locked closet, and were provided with a key so they could set it up and start processing votes, reports said.
