The Truth

One Wayne County polling place had an outage on Election Day: the Medina Activity Center in Canton Township, hit by a neighborhood DTE outage. Canton's clerk said voting continued throughout and posted at 5:32 p.m. that power was back, 14 minutes before Daugherty's post. No other polling place outage was officially reported.

The Text

"Voting continued throughout the outage and is proceeding as normal!"
