Machines flip GOP votes to Democrats in Maryland
Examiner ^ | October 25, 2014 | Kenric Ward

Posted on 10/26/2014 11:48:52 AM PDT by RedMDer

Voting machines that switch Republican votes to Democrats are being reported in Maryland.

“When I first selected my candidate on the electronic machine, it would not put the ‘x’ on the candidate I chose -- a Republican -- but it would put the ‘x’ on the Democrat candidate above it,” reported Donna Hamilton.

“This happened multiple times with multiple selections. Every time my choice flipped from Republican to Democrat. Sometimes it required four or five tries to get the ‘x’ to stay on my real selection,” the Frederick, Md., resident said Thursday.

Two other Maryland voters reported the same problem in Anne Arundel County on Friday.

Donna Hamilton? The WJZ anchor? LOL

This happened years ago here already.

Same old.

Absolutely. I do not like no hard-copy receipt.

No we would not. Give me a break. We are not nearly as predictable as many other certain actual groups.

Ask any kid to day and they will tell you half the population is gay and they are only about 1.5%

I read that Donna Hamilton is the voter reporting the vote switching.
Do you think it may be the same Donna Hamilton?

I heard an interesting point the other day: why do these errors always favor the Democrats? (Not just in this current wave but in all voting mistakes and irregularities). It’s never a benefit for Republicans. It’s always Democrats who benefit when they are discovered. That alone should give one pause.

All that said, why rig machines to help Dems in Maryland of all places? The Dems already have a death grip (literally killing this state) here.

Why bother? Why take the risk with cheating? They can’t be so nervous that they feel they need to rig the machines in Maryland! Can they?

Well they are pulling out the race card this time.
There must be polling that has the rats worried.

If they can program the machines to flip the vote on the screen as the person ‘presses the button’, they could surely just as easily program it to flip the vote AFTER the person presses ‘submit’ and leaves the booth.

That's a good point. A better more general point than mine which was why bother rigging machines in Maryland, a state already completely controlled by Dems.

This just doesn't seem right to me. It's just too obvious. Something stinks, like stale french fries.

I smell a trap myself. It just seems too stupid a conspiracy otherwise.

Yeah they always play the race card though. Desperate or not. I don’t think they feel they are really democrat if they don’t include it in every election at least once.

Also as LegendHasIt pointed out, why not hide the change after submitting the final vote? Why make it so obvious as to change it on the screen, as if people are so stupid they aren’t going to check their votes before submitting?

I’m not saying there’s not something here that’s very troubling but it’s all very strange. It’s like the worst conspiracy ever.

Maybe the ahem calibrators haven't figured out how to change the vote without the display being changed as well.

"...as if people are so stupid they aren’t going to check their votes before submitting?..."

Well, what worries me is that the vast majority may just be that stupid... Including about half of 'non-democrats'. I wonder what percentage of people do double-check such things.

Voter fraud’s a crime. The people doing it need to be arrested, tried and jailed.

Not all women, but if only say 5% of Republican women did it say goodbye to Florida Ohio and Virginia.

“This happened multiple times with multiple selections.

After the first "calibration error", the people experiencing this should break out their cell phones and video the action of the screen.

Upload it to YouTube so some people can download it before it is pulled - for legal or other reasons.

Have those who downloaded it spread it around. The Internet is forever, so someone will eventually pick up on it and raise a stink - or at least cause a voting challenge in some areas.

Honest hypothesis here:

For computers, the Dem is always the first answer in any party election category. It may be basically the default location for every category and some programming glitch may possibly result in it snapping back to default - Dem.
