Beat the Rigging: Don't Vote a Straight Ticket?
self | 10/27/2016 | Unknown

Posted on 10/27/2016 7:24:20 PM PDT by silverleaf

Saw this on another forum. Wondering if this is valid way to defeat riggng?

Quote: "All of the videos I have seen where a person's vote is changed to a democrat have voted a straight republican ticket.

I'm willing to bet that is how their hack works.

The coding would have to be extensive if a person votes for each issue on the ballot." UNQUOTE

Well when we get folks on here who catch their vote getting flipped (seems to be reports of this coming from Texas) , we need to ask if they voted straight party ticket, see if this is a pattern

Your choice but a poor one.

No, it’s the perfect choice. He’s in no danger of losing his seat, he has the Baptists behind him. It’s d**n well time to start voting against these weasels and give them reason to think twice sometimes.

That’s how I do it.

It’s much more satisfying. :)

Now the ballots are read with OCR.

I have never seen 100 judges on a ballot, but I live in a suburb?

We voted one Dem that I know, and one Libertarian on down tickets.


That won’t be difficult...I have a lousy “Republican” senator in IL! He is not supporting Trump and votes like a democrat.

As a professional programmer with decades of experience I can tell you this is stupid. Voting in any pattern can be tweaked with trivial ease toward desired goals.

I will never vote straight ticket again and especially now and rest assured if I see even a hint of possible fraud the precinct judge will hear about it.

Are you in Cook County? That is where the ballots were really, really long. I was exaggerating saying 100, but there were probably 50.

NC has gotten rid of the straight ticket option this year.
I was surprised when I voted last Sunday.

That’s a very smart way to do it. The hackers probably can’t code for every variation of a ballot so it just focuses on the straight party tickets which only take one keystroke.

Also, if electronic voting, be sure to pay attention to the recap summary at the end before you hit the “vote” button.

I never vote straight party anyway. If there’s a RINO versus a principled Libertarian, I’ll vote for the Libertarian.

Have you noticed the one grammar never mentioned on the programmer’s resume is English?

NEVER vote a straight ticket anyway. Check all the boxes. A straight ticket is for people to lazy to investigate the candidates and who are not serious about voting.

Believe it or not, not all members of any party are good enough to vote for.

I won’t be voting straight ticket either.

That’s because the dumbasses in the Virginia state Republican Party couldn’t get it together enough to field a candidate for THE US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES in our district.

Who should I write in?

>>> In my county the electronic voting machines print a copy of your ballot which you are supposed to verify matches your actual votes and then retains it.

Yours is Clearly not a machine built by Soros.

Soros has put machines with no paper trail and no way to verify in 26 states I think.
Every state that has approved these fraud machines should impeach everyone involved.

Nonsense. I don’t see any “hack” working that way. It simply flips the vote to Hillary and leaves everything else as-is. Probably as soon as you leave the page for President, so you don’t see it happen unless you go back and review.

My precinct doesn’t use machines to vote, just ink-a-dot paper ballots. Unfortunately, there is a youtube out there proving that counting machine for those paper ballots can be programmed to reports vote totals that don’t match what all the papers scanned show. So we are screwed even with paper voting.
