Yep, that is why the Dems wanted this kind of voting tech.

The old push card ballots were just fine.

The election is currently being stolen.

Don’t worry. All the elites have told us Obama is the better choice anyway. No point in common people making up their own minds.

Had the same problem in WV last week. They say they’ve fixed it.

I double checked my selections before hitting the send button.

I'm just not getting all this "early voting." I thought election day was Nov 4? I understand the need for absentee balloting for those who are serving our armed forces overseas or otherwise away from their home on election day but that used to be done by mail and was the exception to the rule. Everybody else had to drag their butts to the polling places on the actual Election Day.

Early voting seems to me to set up a perfect opportunity for vote tampering. What happens to the ballots cast during the 7-10 days leading up to Election Day? How can we be sure they are not being tampered with?

One of the biggest con jobs of the century was selling the idea that mechanical vote machines were unreliable, and that software voting was the solution.

As long as I’ve been voting in NY State (since 1968), we’ve always had the mechanical lever machine. I can’t recall there ever being any major problems with them.

The software development of many or most American voting machines was recently subcontracted to a Venezuelan company.

That news got out about two months ago.

They should not be using touch screens for something like this. It's fine for checking out groceries, but not for voting. They need real buttons to press, so it's obvious what you are selecting.

They could even have a prompt "Are you sure you want to vote for McCain?" (press button again) "Are you *really* sure you want to vote for McCain?" Press button again harder. "You've just voted for our Dear Leader, Barack Obama. Have a nice day." :)

Please get this information out to anyone you know who is McPalin supporter who will vote on a diebold machine.

Yes they do act screwy sometimes. I have no idea if this intentional or an accident and it really doesn’t matter at this point.

1)Verify your votes against a sample ballot or palm card. If a vote is wrong, go back and attempt to correct it.

2)If the correction does not take, call an official to help you. The best course would be to move you to a different machine. But what ever you do, DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO HIT THE VOTE BUTTON AT THE TOP. Swat their hand if you have to...granny fashion.

3)Take the numbers of your local Victory offices and a non emergency number for the police with you to your polling place. If an official refuses to help or tries to hurry you, call your Victory office. They can get attorneys from the party dispatched to you. If you feel threatened in any way or are warned that you will be ejected from the polling place, CALL THE POLICE.

This is serious folks. Here in FL we are at war and we are winning. But all of the soldiers need to keep their eyes and ears open and use all of the weapons we can legally brandish.

Just today we had reports at the Victory office of people voting twice at one early voting site and filmed proof of a mail clerk edging an absentee ballot to the trash can from the counter. Those things are being handled. But damn just damn...you cannot even take your eyes off of them for a second.

How about taking a snap/movie of the screen with your cell phone and posting it message boards as well as on YouTube? Bound to raise some Hell that way.

It's real simple. Computers are the way to go, but get rid of touch screen and use a mouse or something.

This sounds to me like a lot people who can't touch the right spot.
