The crossed wires in the back of the machine are now called “calibration errors”.
We need to go back to paper ballots.
In voting, electronics are not our friend.
A few questions:
1) Why aren’t reporters demanding to see the count for that machine for all votes cast before the “calibration error” was discovered?
2) Why aren’t reporters asking if those votes, assuming they’re all Dem votes, will be counted anyway, or set aside for now?
3) Is the person who “calibrated” the machine being questioned by authorities?
4) Why do Republicans just roll over and let their bellies be soothingly scratched every time something like this happens?
5) Why doesn’t this situation qualify as supposedly non-existent “voter fraud”?
Calibration error? The machines are probably deliberately calibrated to switch the votes to the democractic candidate. The error (for dems) wasn’t the calibration; it was the fact that it was discovered.
What is with this early voting concept anyway? It will just prolong the opportunities to fraudulently mess with the votes and allow a longer window for confusion to develop - confusion that will end up helping the democrats, as usual.
A bullshit CHOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Notice its never the other way.
THere is only one answer. Break the defective machine. Every time.
Why is he surprised? No joke. Why is he surprised? Voter fraud is rampant in Chicago. This is no surprise at all.
What troubles me isn’t what gets printed out as your vote. What troubles me is the counting. Unless you can see a blip go up for Oscar the Grouch, then how do you know it didn’t go to Kermit the Frog?
Paper ballots and hand counting had its problems, but at least you had that ballot and could count it again.
We must return to that.
I don’t want a machine scoring it. I don’t want a machine counting it.
Also, NO precinct reports until ALL precincts report at the same time. And even then no numbers released until all precincts are accounted for.
Finally, No additional ballots received after the turn in time, so all absentee ballots must be in the numbers reported.
same thing happens every darn election. Some machine in a million acts up, cast a Dem as a Rep or a Rep as a Dem and the lamestream media has something to fill up a weeks worth of news instead of focusing on the issues.
