The vast majority of Vote Centres are seeing wait times under 30 minutes.” Regarding problems with machines, the county added: “Whether by tabulator or secure ballot box, all voters are being served.” The Maricopa County Elections Department also weighed in, tweeting: “Right now, 111 polling locations have no wait times.” The department included a link to voting locations to try and direct citizens to sites without wait times. Michigan and Pennsylvania Using the words “complete Voter Integrity DISASTER” and citing Detroit and Pennsylvania, Trump said irregularities were “not being covered by the Fake News Media!” In relation to Detroit, the claim relates to e-pollbooks, which are used to confirm by poll workers that a voter is registered and has not been issued or has not cast an absentee ballot.
