(Glenwood, Iowa) – Mills County Auditor Ami Petersen, today (Tuesday) reports “Due to technical difficulties, the voter check-in-tablets were not able to print out a Declaration of Eligibility form. Poll workers were doing paper Eligibility forms instead.

“This in no way affected the ability to vote or the ability to verify if a customer is eligible to vote” Petersen said. The situation was fixed within an hour, according to the Mills County Auditor, who said “Due to not being connected to the internet it did require driving time between precincts for the update to happen.

Ami Petersen said “We are always prepared for this contingency and all polling places have the proper forms and training to complete this process.”
