But officer, I don't see what the problem is! I was just writing in my choice for "None of the above!" < /sarc>

Do a search. I bet there is a thread on DU from someone claiming to be a friend of Michael Young.

He just snapped? Why did he have a paperweight in the first place? This was premeditated.

Let me be the first to ask:

Bush's fault?

it was not immediately clear whether the votes recorded on the machine could be retrieved.

Probably a Dem and the machine had too many Republican votes on it.

I found a Michael Young from Parkland School district as the Custodial Supervisor in Allentown. Not sure if its the same dude or not.

Union goon perhaps.

This sounds like a set up. The media will use this guy to portray the frustration with electronic voting.
My question is if the RATS do not trust this type of voting, do we go back to punch cards? What is next?

He saw Karl Rove's face appear on the screen and he flipped out.

Who wants to bet he was either union member and/or a state/school employee?

The article didn't say he had it with him, so it could have been the polling place's.

but could it have been to stop other from voting????

Perhaps. Or a new way to commit voter fraud--if most of the votes on the machine aren't for your candidate, smash it! /sarcasm
