I don’t think they dropped votes, I think they “flipped” Romney votes to Obama. That way all the totals showed correctly. In a close election, all you would have to do is flip 5% or one in every 20 votes. This is consistent with data showing vote totals were way up in R counties and down in the cities. They just flipped over what they needed.
Those machines malfunctioned for Romney voters, when punched it showed up for Obama on the screen. It took them as much as 3 times to finally get it to stay on Romney.
So., 2 votes for Obama, 1 Vote for Romney. As we DO NOT KNOW what happened internally in those machines, to those Obama Votes
3 votes for Obama and 1 vote for Romney. Voter thinks the Obama vote was cleared when it actually was not. I do think that is what happened in many states. That is not dropping votes for Romney. It is adding to the Obama votes.
Penny here, penny there, pretty soon you have 270.
Those machines, imo, malfunctioned on purpose.
