What: This Tuesday, DAN RATHER REPORTS presents conclusive evidence of the failure of touch screen voting machines across the country. The episode, The Trouble with Touch Screens, is an entire hour devoted to new information on this story. From scientists involved in testing the equipment, to manufacturers in third world countries who shipped these defective voting machines to the United States DAN RATHER REPORTS will present new information showing that these defective machines may have altered the outcome of multiple elections.
A screener clip from this controversial episode is now available at the following link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1826549866685179676&hl=en
When: Dan Rather Reports The Trouble with Touch Screens will air Tuesday, August 14 at 8:00 p.m. ET. The program also airs at 11:00 p.m. ET to accommodate west coast prime time.
Who??
Like “the votes are fake but the results are real?”
(Provided a DemocRAT won.)
Straight from "Kenneth's" mouth.
Hmmm... Rather not.
What’s the disgraced Ol’ Dan up to these days anyway?
How could there be any problems today? Didn’t he receive the memo that Democrats won in 2006?
They only have problems when Republicans won, I thought.
It's going to be a font thing.
So the touch screens are not working huh! I know let’s use a butterfly ballot, any idiot can use those.
there are no voting machine problems if a democrat wins; all in the world is right, pure and clean. if a republican wins, the whole system stinks, people of color have been disenfranchised, old people have been disenfranchised, women have been disenfranchised, anyone who is not lilly white has been disenfranchised, george bush is guilty of fraud and of stealing elections, and there is a conspiracy afoot to alter voting machines to favor a republican outcome.
/sarcasm off/

Does he have documents?
A Texas election official, a Mr. Burkett, gave him rock solid “journalist” evidence, authenticated faxed documents.
So that is why the ‘rats won in 06! I want another congressional election!
I assume he does,he tried to use fake ones to influence a United States Presidential Election.
There is no need at all for voting machines. Paper ballots marked with furnished special pencil and counted by counting machines are reliable and not expensive. Manufacturers of voting machines profit from sale of machines. If Rather esposes the unreliability of voting machines that is good. But I suspect this will be an effort to preempt the effort to get rid of these machines and yet make it look like an honest evaluation of the machines that can be easily corrected and keep on selling the machines.
Odds are good that some electronic parts may well have come from Malaysia ~ and that’s hardly a third-world country anymore.
Paper ballots do not have an audit trail.
Audit trail no, but paper ballots EXIST, at least. Plenty of ways for fraud with paper ballots too, especially absentee ballot tricks and delaying military ballots, of course.
