(AZ)Election Day issues: Foreclosure, technology glitches, running out of ballots
The entire Maricopa County computer system, which is needed for voters to check in at the polls, went offline around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Around noon, Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes confirmed that the system had a 20-25 minute "slowdown" during the 11 a.m. hour, and the system was entirely down for five minutes.

Poll workers arrived at the Golf Academy of America, a designated polling place in northern Chandler, around 5 a.m. Everything was ready for voting. Election machines were hooked up and ballots sat waiting.
But poll workers couldn’t get inside. The doors were locked. (They were foreclosed on)
