Problems with voting machines in Iowa!
'Just reported on MSNBC: Two Iowa counties have reported serious problems with their electronic voting machines. One county plans to resume voting immediately with new machines and the other county has to wait for the machines to arrive from Nebraska tomorrow.

Plus, there are still thousands of absentee ballots that have not been counted there.

Nothing will be decided tonight!

2. That's what it sounded like...
they had video of voters waiting in line, but didn't identify the time the video was shot.

Apparently, the machines malfunctioned in a major way. It wasn't just a few votes here or there.

It's almost 2:00 am Central Time. I can't imagine expecting voters to return in the middle of the night, but that's what they reported.
