강남서도 “투표지 부족 예상”…선관위, 즉각조처 대신 “500매 남으면 연락하라”

Concerns regarding a potential shortage of ballot papers have emerged at a polling station in Gangnam. Despite these warnings, election officials reportedly declined to take immediate preventative action to replenish supplies. Instead, authorities instructed poll workers to wait until the remaining stock dropped to 500 sheets before requesting additional materials. This reactive approach has raised questions about the preparedness of election management during high-turnout periods. Critics argue that such bureaucratic thresholds could inadvertently disrupt the voting process if demand spikes unexpectedly.

The incident highlights potential vulnerabilities in election logistics and the adequacy of contingency protocols for maintaining uninterrupted voting access.
