AAA This district housing six Assembly segments witnessed brisk polling on Tuesday to register the poll percentage of 69.84. Following technical snag in the EVMs in two polling booths in St. Michael’s Primary School in Tharuvaikulam under the Ottapidaaram (reserved) constituency, voters had to wait in long queue. While polling commenced at 7.30 a.m. in one of the booths, voting could be started only around 9.15 a.m. Similar problems delayed voting for 30 minutes in the TDTA High School at Christiyanagaram near Udangudi in Tiruchendur constituency, panchayat union primary school at Gnaniyarkudiyiruppu near Sattankulam under Srivaikundam constituency, RC Middle School in Sattankulam. The delay irked the waiting voters and the political party agents as well.
