West Virginia's secretary of State Betty Ireland made it clear by saying not to be afraid to ask for help and requested voters to double-check their ballots. She advised the citizens who are yet to vote. To notify a poll officer if they come across any problem at the voting booth, they can that poll officer until the voter is satisfied that they have cast their vote. Election officials continue to say that the electronic machines act as the best way to catch hold of the fraud votes.
