Voting problems prompt retraining of poll workers. Hundreds will be trained again, but 163 won't be asked back

 The spotlight has been on Hamilton County due to poll worker problems on Election Day, including one that resulted in a prison sentence for Melowese Richardson, above, who was convicted of voter fraud last month.

Hundreds of Hamilton County poll workers will be retrained – and 163 “retired” – as a result of voting problems in the 2012 election.

That includes 94 workers at 16 precincts that will be completely restaffed because of a high number of errors.

The others failed to vote themselves and/or performed poorly on Election Day.
Those 163 poll workers represent about 5.6 percent of poll workers – the most ever who aren’t being asked back.
