SUMMARY: In a recent election previously held by former councilwoman Angelique Lee, confusion and frustration arose among new candidates unfamiliar with the process. A ballot box arrived at the Hood Building shortly after polls closed at 7 PM, leading to delays as city election employees spent an hour and a half feeding ballots into two counting machines. A surrogate expressed dissatisfaction with the slow counting process, questioning the limited number of machines available. The election commission stated they had to use smaller machines from Hinds County, as larger ones were being prepared for the upcoming November presidential election, resulting in a lack of immediate precinct results.
