I live here and have a paid subscription and I'm trying to find the relevant article. I guess with copyright laws I can't post the whole thing, but excerpts.

BTW, here's from a different article:

"If we had 5,000 machines we would have put every one of them out there,’’ Damschroder said. "From our perspective, there are (thousands of) stories of people who stood in line and voted.’’
    A log of Nov. 2 service calls from precinct judges shows 32 requests for extra voting machines, none of which was filled. Twenty-three calls came from Columbus voting locations, and nine came from Bexley, Dublin, Gahanna, Reynoldsburg, Upper Arlington, Westerville and Whitehall.
    In addition, the board logged 101 calls for voting machine problems: 38 human errors, 56 mechanical problems such as paper-roll jams or burned-out lights, and seven problems with electrical outlets.
    In 2000, there were 46 reported voting-machine problems of all types.
