On the first day of early in-person voting in Wisconsin, the WisVote system experienced a meltdown. Voters faced long lines and delays due to system glitches, bandwidth issues, and absentee ballot verification challenges. Thousands of voters were either turned away or had to wait hours to cast their ballots. The Wisconsin Election Commission attributed the issues to higher-than-expected turnout. The Republican National Committee responded by setting up an election fraud hotline. Quotes: “Voters were frustrated, with hours-long wait times in several communities.” “This meltdown brings back memories of election issues from previous years.”
