Colorado reports brief voting delays after momentary computer problems

Colorado’s election system briefly failed shortly before 3 p.m. Tuesday, momentarily crippling voting and forcing a small number of voters to cast provisional ballots.
The voter registration system went down at 2:47 p.m., according to spokeswoman Lynn Bartels, who confirmed the outage at 3:13 p.m. With the system down, county election clerks could not process mail ballots whose signatures had not already verified already or confirm the identity of residents voting in person.
