It also looked to have machine-fed ballots (I'm reading about voting machines breaking down - not sure where or what kind).

Maybe after work voters who couldn't go early?
Fontes tried to extend the voting hours (with SoS Reagan's support), but it was knocked down by the County Board of Supervisors apparently.
