UNDATED (AP) -- There have been some minor voting glitches reported around the state this morning.

In the Jacksonville suburb of Orange Park, some voters are forced to use paper ballots after an electronic machine broke.

Barbara Dowling, who works at Orange Park Medical Center says it took too long to vote.

In Broward County, voting was briefly delayed at four districts.

A spokeswoman for Broward County elections says in two precincts, the electronic ballots were mixed up, delaying votes for about half an hour.

She says at the other two, a poll worker unintentionally wiped the electronic ballot activators, delaying voting for more than an hour.
