Though early reports indicate only a portion of the warehouse was destroyed, Kaufman tells KTRH's Morning News she's preparing for the worst.

“I’m not optimistic that we’ll be able to recover a whole lot of it because we’re talking about plastic and a lot of heat,” says Kaufmann.

Not sure what to think of this. But wonder if it was a RAT caused fire, or a problem with the machines malfunctioning and causing a fire. Or just regular bad luck.

If any more of these sort of "cowinkydinks" happen, it ain't chance.

In other news, new polls indicate that Texas voters leaning heavily toward all the radical far-left candidates this year ... this surprising news is not in anyway related to the recent problems at the warehouse holding the voting machines.

I've worked in warehousing for over twenty-five years, and I smell a rat.

If they're starting this early, they must be scared.

Obviously done by the Democrats. They want to get back to paper ballots as fast as possible so they can steal the election.

The timing of this is suspicious and disconcerting.

Harris County is kind of left, in Texas terms. Not nearly so bad as Travis County (Austin), but Houston is rotten with what Colin Powell lauded as “urban values”, a contrdiction in terms that never fails to amuse me.

1. Rat starts fire

2. voting machines destroyed

3. voting machines need to be replaced

4. replace voting machines quickly with hardware running compromised software designed to either inflate / deflate a specific candidates vote total. OR temporarily use another method of voting that lends itself easily to vote manipulation by the people who “count” the vote.

5. Profit.

On a voting-related note, from TN...

Irregularities mar August vote

Ten Candidates File Suit as 'Massive Improprieties, Tampering' Seen in Shelby County, TN, Election

And from India...

Police extend detention of e-voting critic

Voter fraud is treason. It should be prosecuted accordingly.
