In Leon County two vote counting machines were replaced after poll workers discovered the machines weren?t reading some ballots. The ballots were locked away and tabulated on new machines after the polls closed. Secretary of State Kurt Browning says the problems were minor and handled by county supervisors. <\/p>\n
