TRENTON, N.J. (CBS) -- A county in New Jersey is experiencing issues with its voting machines. All machines in each district in Mercer County are down due to a printing and scanning issue with the ballots.

It's been a mixed reaction from voters and political candidates with some saying the process has been smooth, while other candidates say voters have called them with alarming concerns about the process.

It's important to emphasize that voters in Mercer County can still vote. The Mercer County clerk says there's a problem with Dominion Voting Systems' scanners not reading the ballot.

A Dominion spokesperson says they believe the problem is with the printed ballots and not its technology.

With problems with all the ballot printing machines and scanners, there's been a rise in frustration and conspiracy theories. Mercer County's machine issues have been all morning and still aren't resolved.

As a social media poll monitor with Common Cause's Election Protection, we were asked to be part of calming the waters and remind people that tech issues are not uncommon, to stay calm and vote.
