Harris County leaders still don't know the extent of what went wrong during Election Day, although they're making suggestions on how to improve future polls.A week after the election, votes are still being counted in Harris County as leaders still don't know the extent of what went wrong. Although, they're making suggestions on improving future elections.
Tuesday's meeting was full of outbursts as frustration boiled over what went wrong with last week's midterm election. The election administrator said polling places opened late, ran out of paper, and had communication issues, but administrator Clifford Tatum doesn't know how bad it was yet. Tatum gave commissioners ways they could improve future elections. He said it starts with better training. He also wants a way to improve communication. Currently, if a judge needs a technician, and one is dispatched, there's no way to track if the work is completed.
