County officials apologized to residents of Pinal County on Wednesday for not having enough in-person ballots. Over 20 precincts in the County ran low or were completely out of ballots prior to the polls closing.<\/p>\n<p>No official cause as to why there was a shortage has been given, however, Pinal County officials believes high demand and printing errors may have been possible factors.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Due to unprecedented demand for in-person ballots, Pinal County has experienced a ballot shortage in certain, limited precincts.  Pinal County is continuing to print additional ballots and distributing them to each affected precinct polling place.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Pinal County \u2013 Government \ud83c\udf35 (@PinalCounty) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PinalCounty\/status\/1554617201679687680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 2, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>During a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8PIpp4cdjZA\">press conference<\/a> on Wednesday, the Pinal County Board of Supervisors addressed issues regarding the lack of in-person ballots. County official Jefferey McClure spoke on the topic.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cI\u2019m not entirely sure how the ballot shortage happened,\u201d he said. \u201cWe opened the boxes and there weren\u2019t enough ballots, so we\u2019re not really quite clear how that occurred.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Election officials have speculated they will not be able to certify the election due to the possibility that people were not able to vote. This announcement comes after 60,000 mis-printed ballots were sent throughout the county in July.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sen-blackburn-china-should-never-dictate-us-foreign-policy\/\">Sen.
