Abstract

HOUSTON -- Arson investigators have been called in to scrutinize a fire that destroyed the warehouse where all of Harris County's voting machines were stored.

Election officials have come up with emergency plans to buy new electronic voting machines, borrow hundreds from other counties and use paper ballots as well.
