They replaced the mechanical pull-arm machines with mark/scan systems. The main issue involved people who incorrectly voted for multiple people in single races, or who did not correctly mark out a mistake. The big problem is that if this is not fixed for next year's presidential race, they estimate that the number of uncounted votes could easily be 100,000.

These are not Sequoia/Diebold electronic voting machines, but it is possible the scanners were made by one of them.
