With Election Day coming just days after a wave of tornadoes hit the Sooner State, local officials feared several polling places in Adair County would be without power.

State Sen. Tom Woods, a Westville Republican, said he spent much of Monday evening working to secure portable power generators for polling places in Adair County. Woods said the polling place in the small community of Christie, between Tahlequah and Westville on Highway 62, was the only polling place still using a portable power generator Tuesday morning.

He said 16 other polling places in Adair County and 27 in Cherokee County are open and operating and generators are on standby in case of more power outages.
