Questions remain as tech company takes blame for glitch in Florida county election websites

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — An elections technology company has taken full responsibility for glitches that kept Florida county elections officials from immediately posting primary election results on Tuesday night. While the problem didn’t affect voters or ballot counting, there were still unanswered questions Wednesday. Tallahassee-based VR Systems issued a brief statement but declined to answer questions on how widespread the problem was and why it wasn’t prepared for websites that slowed or crashed. The company also has not said how it’s going to fix the problem that popped up during a low-turnout primary when it deals with a much larger demand for information during a hotly contested presidential election in less than three months.
