CAMBRIA COUNTY, Pa. (WTAJ) — Cambria County officials have been ordered to conduct a new search for records related to a major voting system failure during the November 2024 election, following a successful appeal from State Rep. Frank Burns under Pennsylvania's Right-to-Know Law.

The state Office of Open Records ruled that the county’s original reason for denying Burns’ records request, citing a noncriminal investigation, was not valid, requiring the county to either provide the documents or legally attest that they do not exist.

Burns requested any documentation explaining the nature of the voting machine malfunction that led to ballots going unscanned and unaccounted for, as well as a tally of how many ballots were successfully or unsuccessfully scanned on Election Day.
