Confusion, missing mail-in ballots and long lines at some polling centers marred primary elections in eight states and the District of Columbia, the biggest test yet of voting during the coronavirus outbreak by johnwhitesides JarrettRenshaw

That led to record numbers of mail-in ballots requested and cast in many states, along with an explosion of complaints about delayed ballots and questions about where to vote after polling places were consolidated. While most in-person voting locations featured extensive safety protocols - including masks, sanitizer and social distancing for lines - there were lapses.

Robert Wood, 54, said he considered not going to the polls given the dual threat of the coronavirus and riots. But the South Philadelphia resident said he thought last week’s events made it even more important. Pennsylvania and three of the other states voting - Indiana, Maryland and Rhode Island - had delayed their nominating contests from earlier in the year to avoid the worst of the coronavirus outbreak that has killed more than 105,000 people in the United States. Iowa, Montana, New Mexico, South Dakota and the District of Columbia also were voting on Tuesday.
