Ohio Democrats Filing Lawsuit To Keep Polls Open Late

13 Percent Voter Turnout Reported In Cuyahoga County
UPDATED: 5:46 pm EST November 7, 2006

CLEVELAND -- The Ohio Democratic party is filing a lawsuit to keep polling locations in Cuyahoga County open late, NewsChannel5 reported.

Four poling locations did not open until about 7 a.m. The Democrats are not happy that they did not open on time.

They are asking a judge to keep them open. The same thing happened in the May primary.

The Democrats want to give voters extra time to cast their ballots.

They are also concerned about the security of the paper ballots that had been cast when electronic machines weren't working Tuesday morning.

The Board of Elections is preparted to argue the case in front of judge.
