More than 82,000 Clark County residents cast ballots on Election Day with mostly manageable lines and few problems, but a technology issue early in the day forced 30 voting locations to extend polling hours.

Officials are struggling to recruit polling place workers to staff locations for this year’s election, so the county’s top election official wants to scale back plans.
The county said Monday it is increasing pay for polling place workers for the upcoming election. Of the estimated 3,100 workers it needs, only about 1,600 have signed up.
Joe Gloria, the county’s registrar of voters, said the voting lines on Tuesday were unacceptable but the process will be better in November’s general election.
