Power Failure Hits Government Computers State Wide

Visitors to courthouses across the state experienced headaches today after a power outage in Frankfort knocked out state computers. Visitors to County Courthouses were unable to renew their vehicle registrations or have their pictures taken for new drivers licenses. The computer systems went down early this morning when a power transformer failed at the state Data Center in Frankfort, according to Jill Midkiff, a spokeswoman for the Finance and Administration Cabinet. Midkill went on to state that the outage affected pretty much everything electronic in state government . Officials say they are not sure why the electrical transformer failed but were hopeful that all systems would be back up and functional by the end of the day.
