Poll workers Phyllis Wallace (left) and Nancy Faeger (right) work diligently to remedy issues pertaining to voting machines for non-registered voters Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2020, in Carbondale, Ill. As the polls opened at the Carbondale Civic Center, poll workers were alarmed when the machines displayed election material and code from the last presidential election. Having originally been held at SIU the machines had to be reset in order to be properly used for voters, causing a delay of over an hour. Voters were urged to come back at a later time or to stand and wait, resulting in several voters leaving in frustration.
