The Florida recount hit another snag on Tuesday when voting machines in Palm Beach County overheated, a report said.
The malfunction in the decade-old machines gave incorrect totals on the recount of about 175,000 votes, according to The Miami Herald.
“We’re disappointed by the mechanical problems that are going to cause a further delay in the recount,” supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher told reporters.
“It became evident through the vigorous pace of counting that the machines used for the recount were starting to get stressed.”
Mechanics have been flown in to fix the machines.
