Twitter Vote Report is an all-volunteer network of software developers, designers, and other collaborators who have teamed up to help track voting problems on Election Day.

Using Twitter Vote Report, voters will be able to share their experiences and resources with one another (e.g. “#wait:120? meaning that the wait time is 120 minutes). These messages will then be aggregated and mapped so that we can “see” voting problems around the country in real-time.

How do you submit a report?
