Para las 2:30 p.m. del martes la línea telefónica para reportar fraude del procurador general de Kentucky había recibido 76 llamadas de 31 condados, según el Lexington Herald Leader, el segundo periódico más grande del estado.
La mayoría eran preguntas de procedimiento, y algunos problemas con las maquinas de votación, o votantes que no se habían registrado como demócratas, reporta otro medio de Kentucky, WSAZ News.
Esto podría explicar por qué se demoraron en entrar los resultados de los últimos condados, dejando incierto hasta el último momento quién es el ganador.
