"Voting Machine Trouble and Confidence in Accurate Count: Election 2023 Updates"

A programming error in Northampton County's voting machines caused votes to flip when voters split their votes on retention questions for Superior Court judges. County Executive Lamont McClure expressed frustration but assured that all votes will be counted. Poll workers resorted to using provisional ballots after the error was discovered, and the county plans to flip the results during the post-election canvass. The Northampton County Republican Committee intends to appeal the decision. This is not the first time the county has experienced issues with the ES&S voting machines.
