Wyo. elections office: Few problems, high turnout

The state elections office says voter turnout appears to have been high and there were few voting problems in Wyoming. Deputy Secretary of State Pat Arp says county clerks are reporting high turnout across the state. Official turnout won't be known until all counties report their complete results. Some 70,000 voters cast absentee or early ballots, up from 50,000 four years ago. A couple minor problems did crop up. Officials in Park County had difficulty getting a machine to read ballots.
In Teton County, 1 of 18 precincts ran out of ballots. The Teton County clerk says about 100 additional ballots were printed out to make sure everybody could vote.
