CNN

It's amazing to me how people that are not even from the Akron area and haven't the vaguest idea what they're talking about, have the most to say. I do live there, the power outage was short, and everybody who wants to will get to vote. As for the snide comments about Ohio stealing the election, it's not even possible. The only thing stolen in Ohio or anywhere else is evidently common sense. Pea brains looking for a conspiracy behind everything. Especially Mr Galoot who can't even spell.

Why is this keep happen to Ohio but, keep hope live that everthing happen fairly.

Figures it has to be ohio! Akron of all places i live in akron. Do i smell set-up!? Sounds fishy to me we shall see.

WHAT NEXT!

Hmmm...Somebody got worried about the Zip's voice. Hope it didn't reset the machine or something. We're watchingggg summit !

Early voting in Ohio started a month ago. No reason to be stuck in long lines today.

The power also went out a a polling place in Reynoldsburg, OH, which is a suburb of Columbus. I voted early...

Trends? i got one!

Maybe the Republican voters in Rural America need more radio and TV access to know whats what! We need the Fair Doctrine nationwide so they have both sides!

Colorado Democratic Voter!

P.S I was a Hillary delegate, had a tough time deciding until McCain picked Sarah Pallin. Then it was a no brainer (pun intended).

Cheers!

Well, DUH, these problems only happen in swing states.

leslie this election wasnt stolen it was bought

Im from Akron and fortunately I voted early. Yea we had power outages which is very suspect. Power lines, cable out whats up OHIO?

Wow!!! sounds like florida all over again, i stay 45min fron akron and it is 70 degrees out side hope they dont claim weather related issues with the power issues

blah! must be those right wingers lol

Yes it does

bless up mr. obama wi deh yah in jamaica, and wi can feel di powers u a bring, blesss!!!!!!!!!!!!.

As a former Akron resident I am not surprised- probably some redneck driving his F350 into a substation. Go OH-Bama!

I'm not surprised this is happening in Akron. The power goes out randomly over here. I was in a McDonalds when the lights went out on the whole street and the weather was sunny. They really need to invest money in upgrading their power grid.

It is crazy that there are so many problems with being able to vote four years from the last election. It really makes me wonder if these aren't things that are man made to try & influence the votes. This is the United States of America, people are suppose to vote for the canidate of choice in each & every state. We need to have accountability in these voting. We also need to get rid of the electorial college, there may of been a reason to of had it at one time, but it's time to let the majority of the people speak, not just those that are in involved with the electorial college.

Another reason voting machines are a bad idea.

Also, why is it always Ohio?

Figures...you would think they would have been prepared...sounds VERY suspicious...OOPS...lights went out....Old trick

Yes this does sound very suspicious. Lets hope Ohio OR Florida don't screw this election up like they did before.

Akron is a predominately democratic city. If anything is suspicous its on the Obama and democratic side. Just like the fake voters they are registering.

OK Ohio we are watching you. Don't try to steal this one

Are you kidding me with this?? Why can't we have an honest election? This is an outrage.

Wait a minute I live in akron ohio and I don't recall a blackout happening.This is how it all starts.

RIOT TIME!

Hey everyone, I hope you all got out to vote today! I just wanted to let you know of this hysterical video I found that makes fun of the presedential race called ANYONE CAN BE VP. It's probably the funniest video I have ever seen. Have a wonderful night, just go to youtube and put it in the search bar!

things happen!

HA! How strange that this would happen in Akron OH.
Another attempt at stealing the election. Out of all places two polling places misteriously lose power. SO brazen.

It was incredibly easy to vote early. I'm not sure why everyone didn't. I walked in with three forms of ID weeks ago and was done in minutes.

Are you kidding me? Can't this country at least figure out electricity? I really hope this incident will not lead to a scandal

Are you kidding me? Can't this country at least figure out electricity? I really hope this incident will not lead to a scandal

OH please! Give me a break.....suspicious?

I live in the exact neighborhood where the power went out. The power outage was not confined to the polling places. Street lights were not functional in part of the neighborhood, and some businesses were without power as well. Now, as to the cause of the power outage, I will not speculate.

akron!

Weather in Akron today was perfect. No wind storm or rain what could possibly make the power go out on that side of town? Hmmm something here is fishy.LOL

Holy crap I live in Akron, and I didn't find out about the outage until I read this page.

Good thing I voted early.

Hello Diebold!

let the vote tell the story instead of trying to minipulate the people.

USA1

..and when all the lights came back on, all of the voting booths had been switched with exact replicas.

very very suspicious. for an unknown reason. suspiciously suspicious

Are there electronic voting machines there? Lost votes due to power outages? Why won't diebold let me get access to money that isn't mine, yet is able to so screw up an election? As an Akronite who voted provisionally, I'm scared that we'll get screwed either way.

Obama/ Biden '08

Here's to getting our votes counted.

So there was all the buzz that 1/3 of registered voters voted early/absentee this year. when are these votes counted? if we voted weeks ago why are those numbers not already reported?

Here we go again.

No CNN! They just mentioned. America Tomorrow! There will be no: America Tomorrow. Just America of yesterday!! Welcome to the real world.. You did not lose your twin-towers in vain... Now you can join the Arab-republic......

Once again OHIO is suspect, this is a travesty. I will petition all if this election is stolen!

Gee, maybe they should check for plumbers?

Sounds suspicious

Ok, I smell a rat.

A big smelly rat.

This one reeks to high heaven.
