LEE COUNTY, Fla.- Elections Supervisor Sharon Harrington has just wrapped up a press conference to respond to voter outrage at long lines on Election Day. The number of scanners available to the county and the number available to send out to precincts are the big issues being addressed.
Some Lee County voters waited as long as five hours, others waited all that time only to be told they had been given the wrong precinct.
At one point, Harrington broke down in tears while speaking about the issues.
When confronted with some voters request for her to resign in light of what happened, she said she had no plans to do so.
