Voting Hours Extended in Pennsylvania Counties Due to Technical Issues

Voters in several counties in Pennsylvania, particularly in Republican strongholds Cambria and Luzerne, experienced significant disruptions during the recent elections due to software malfunctions and voting machine errors. In Cambria County, polls have been extended until 10 p.m. to accommodate voters affected by ballot scanning issues and equipment breakdowns. Similar problems were reported in Luzerne County, where a judge also approved an extension for in-person voting due to late openings and technical glitches. Authorities have confirmed that these issues are not indicative of fraud, and there is no evidence of cyberattacks impacting the voting process. Despite the challenges, voters continue to cast their ballots across the affected regions amidst assurances from election security officials.
