There were no complaints of any glitches in the Electronic Voting Machine-Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (EVM-VVPATs) till the voting ended at 3 pm, an election official from Bhandara said.
The counting of votes will be held as per schedule on Thursday in both Palghar and Bhandara-Gondiya Lok Sabha seats.
The repoll was ordered by Election Commission after widespread incidents of malfunctioning EVM-VVPATs during the polling held on Monday in the constituency.
The re-polling was taken up in 49 polling stations spread across Bhandara, Sakoli, Arjuni-Morgaon, Tirora and Gondiya assembly segments that comprise Bhandara-Gondiya parliamentary seat in eastern Maharashtra.
On Tuesday, Gondiya Collector Abhimanyu R. Kale - who was overseeing the Bhandara-Gondiya parliamentary constituency elections - was shunted out and replaced by Kadambari S. Balkawde.
The high-stakes bypolls saw widespread glitches in EVM-VVPATs and allegations of foul play by all opposition parties and ruling ally Shiv Sena.
