Thousands of voting machines in limbo because of 6th District lawsuit

A lawsuit related to the hotly contested 6th Congressional District special election has sidelined thousands of voting machines.

The potential result may mean some metro Atlanta voters could potentially see longer wait times at the polls in November.

Why are the machines off-limits? Plaintiffs have sought to preserve electronic records that could have bearing on the suit, which seeks to invalidate the results over concerns about the security and accuracy of Georgia's electronic voting system.
