BREAKING NEWS! Earthquake hit U.S., may disrupt polls

Tuesday is the hot day for the American polls but it is sad to say that a 5.0-magnitude earthquake hit the U.S. state of Oklahoma on Monday with no major damage being immediately reported. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the earthquake occurred around 0144 GMT with an epicentre located about 1.6 km west of Cushing, a city in the northern part of Oklahoma.
The Police have made reports that the quake caused considerable damage but further details were not made known to the news source. Cushing, a city with a population of nearly 8,000, is home to the Cushing Tank Farm, a massive oil storage facility that is billed as the World’s largest. Recently, a 4.5-magnitude quake rocked the northern part of Oklahoma with an epicentre near the city of Pawnee.
In September, a 5.6-magnitude earthquake also struck Oklahoma with an epicenter around 14.4 km northwest of Pawnee. Scientists have linked the state’s rise in quakes to the underground disposal of wastewater from oil and gas production. The big question is if this unfortunate incident is gonna affect the polls coming Tuesday.
