Callers to 1-866-MYVOTE1 have reported an insufficient number of Democratic machines at polling locations and broken machines, according to a news release from the hotline.
The hotline, promoted by the Tom Joyner Morning Show and sponsored by a coalition of civil rights organizations, has received more than 1,200 calls from Mississippi.
Of the Madison County complaints, voters had problems at precincts located at Fellowship Bible Church on U.S. 51 in Canton, First Presbyterian Church in Madison and Frankin Baptist Church in Flora.
District 5 Elections Commissioner Leroy Lacy said he had not heard of any voter complications.
Circuit Clerk Lee Westbrook and Elections Commission Chairwoman Kakey Chaney could not be reached immediately for comment.
