JACKSON, Miss.--Voter turnout remained higher than expected on Election Day. There have been a few problems reported, but according to a news release from Sec. of State Delbert Hosemann's office, those problems were addressed and fixed quickly.

From Hosemann's office:

Issues reported to the Office:

• Hinds County:  Terry Volunteer Fire Department:  Long lines reported.  Voters are walking far distances to cast their ballot.  Hinds County Sheriff’s Department is on site to direct traffic. 
• Stone County:  One precinct is without power; voting machines are working from battery powered devices. 
• Scott County:  Issue where some machines were either not plugged in and another was knocked over.  A county tech was dispatched to the location and the machines were up and running by 7:36 am. 
• Counties with printers attached to the voting machines will only show a “D” or an “R” under the presidential race, due to a lack of character space on the printer tapes on the machines.   Thirty-eight (38) of the 77 counties which use voting machines have received preclearance from the Department of Justice to remove the printers from the machines.  Those counties include:   Adams, Alcorn, Amite, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Clay, Copiah, Forrest, George, Grenada, Hancock, Harrison, Itawamba, Jackson, Jasper, Jefferson, Jones, Lawrence, Lincoln, Lowndes, Madison, Marion, Monroe, Neshoba, Oktibbeha, Panola, Pearl River, Perry, Prentiss, Simpson, Smith, Stone, Sunflower, Tallahatchie, Union, Wayne, Winston, Yazoo.
