Nov 05, 2024
Officials have extended the hours to vote by two hours after voting machines in Cambria County — near Pittsburgh — were unable to scan completed ballots on the morning of Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024.
On Tuesday morning, the county filed for emergency relief after a “software malfunction” prevented voting machines from scanning completed ballots.
As of 9:30 a.m., when the paperwork was filed for emergency relief, the issue had not been resolved.

The county’s court granted the relief and extended voting hours in Cambria County by two hours — from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Any vote cast after 8 p.m. would need to be done by provisional ballot, the court ruled, as well.
