Getting to one Fargo polling location has proven to be a challenge for some voters.


One woman said it took her and her husband 90 minutes to navigate road construction outside the Robert Johnson Recreation Center at the corner of 11th Street and 2nd Avenue South.


"With construction going on, we couldn't get to the place," said the woman. "We went around in circles, we had to get our son to come over and help us. He couldn't find it."

Another voter, who rode her bike to the precinct, said she did not have a problem.


Cass County Auditor Mike Montplaisir said the street work is unfortunate, but it has happened in the past.


Voters heading to the recreation center are urged to park on the south side of the building.
