UNDATED (WHBL) – An often-used voting resource website had problems at exactly the wrong time on Tuesday. The https://myvote.wi.gov/ website wasn’t working properly in the midst of the primary election. That site is used by voters looking for their polling places, and by clerks looking to confirm a voter’s ward and precinct as an example.
A plan-B backup service was put into play as part of contingencies for this very possibility and the Wisconsin Elections Commission will continue looking into what caused the problem.
