U.S. Midterm Live Update: In-Person Voting Underway Outside Hawaii

BlockBeats’ live update said in-person voting was underway in every U.S. state except Hawaii after 11 a.m. Eastern Time on Nov. 4.

Operational updates

The update said voting machines in Westchester County, New York, could not read paper ballots, so voters could fill them out by hand. It also said 21 polling locations in central Florida had been temporarily relocated because of severe flooding.

Election-day activity

The flash reported that the U.S. Justice Department had dispatched federal election monitors to several swing states and that former President Barack Obama made an automated call supporting Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. These are live-update reports and may change as officials issue further information.
