'Calibration error’ changes GOP votes to Dem in Illinois

CHICAGO — Early voting in Illinois got off to a rocky start Monday, as votes being cast for Republican candidates were transformed into votes for Democrats.

Republican state representative candidate Jim Moynihan went to vote Monday at the Schaumburg Public Library.

“I tried to cast a vote for myself and instead it cast the vote for my opponent,” Moynihan said. “You could imagine my surprise as the same thing happened with a number of races when I tried to vote for a Republican and the machine registered a vote for a Democrat.”

The conservative website Illinois Review reported that “While using a touch screen voting machine in Schaumburg, Moynihan voted for several races on the ballot, only to find that whenever he voted for a Republican candidate, the machine registered the vote for a Democrat in the same race. He notified the election judge at his polling place and demonstrated that it continued to cast a vote for the opposing candidate’s party. Moynihan was eventually allowed to vote for Republican candidates, including his own race.

Now, who would have known this would happen in Chicago, IL... A den of liars, thieves, criminals... Illinois, which Obama constantly praises. Yes, it was one of several places where he learned all the fantastic methods of social and economic terrorism (and others), that he is using against the United States.

Yes, a calibration error.

I could imagine his surprise if it hadn’t.

I am, or was, an EE. How can an exact digitizable quantity, like a vote, be subject to a calibration error?

Or, if the calibration error is in assessment of when the box is filled in on a graphical screen interface, how can it default to an entirely different box which wasn’t touched at all?

I find it interesting that “calibration errors” always seem to change Republican votes to DemocRAT votes but never to change ‘RAT votes to Republican. I guess that’s pure coincidence.

This is precisely how the D’s keep the Senate this year. I’m now entirely convinced, the ballot box is no longer valid and does not work.

I am not an expert, but when I bought a Kindle fire table, I had to calibrate the touch screen. So this could be the case, at least if it only happens once.
But if it happens more than once, it is enemy action.

Filthy liars. They really think we’re stupid. Calibration is what you to do your barometer when you adjust it so its reading equals another reliable reading.

No wonder it’s impossible to talk with liberals. Their idea of reality is not the same as normal peoples’.

This sort of “calibration error” seems to be common and may explain the districts with 100% democrat votes. The crooks running the “Democrat” (more like Soviet Communists) Party disgust me.

If the Rats were smart, they’d embed a random generator that enables the random conversion a few votes here and there.

At this time, the machine vendor needs to be hauled into court to examine the code for malicious and intentional fraud.

And btw, the term “calibration” is a technical term that most LIVs have no clue what it means. Also, the use of calibration as the cause is an utter and unequivocal lie, and makes no sense at all.

THIS JUST IN---With less than two weeks until Election Day, the race for Illinois governor is a dead heat---a new Chicago Tribune poll shows Rauner with 45% support and Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn with 43%. Plus the poll found Obama's job approval slipping away. Only 46% approve — down from 52% last month---a low-water mark for the president since the Tribune began tracking his tenure in the White House.

UT OH--Technical difficulties with Cook County voting machines surface. When state Senate candidate Moynihan used the touch-screen, it improperly assigned his votes....... due to "improper calibration.” Same thing like going in for a surgery to have your gangrenous left leg amputated and the doctor mistakenly removes the right leg.......its only a “calibration error.”

======================================

Mmmm......you don't really think Mayor Rahm is gonna let Dummycrats lose, do you? Criminal Chicago politicians are at work as we type.

<><><> TURNOUT IS CRUCIAL---In Democrat nabes and among their core constituency, armies of college students and union activists (carrying i-phones running DNC voter apps), go door to door multiple times in the next 2 weeks, which will give them a 5 or 10 point+, advantage in “turnout." No matter the contrived agit-prop WRT "turned off or uninterested voters, Obama'a low numbers," Democrats will harvest massive numbers of mail-in ballots because the Dummy core no longer needs "motivation" to get to the polls, they just have to answer the doorbell.

<><><> ILLINOIS VOTER ROLLS TEEMING W/ INELIGIBLE OBAM-ENABLED DACA-TYPES North Carolina election officials just discovered 145 names who are ineligible b/c they are illegal immigrants granted Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status.....

....the NC State Bd of Elections discovered the illegal voters Tuesday when the DMV ran a search for DACA licenses. The DACA recipients on voting rolls will be sent letters requesting documentation that they are citizens. NC DACA beneficiaries are able to obtain drivers licenses, but are not able to vote.

The Winston-Salem Journal notes that it is likely more ineligible people may still remain on the voting rolls. Nearly 10,000 names on the rolls are tagged by the DMV as "legally present"..... But that doesn’t mean that all 10,000 are ineligible to vote. These were not US citizens when they got a license. They may have been green-card holders, foreign workers or foreign students, for example.

Earlier, election officials did a sample cross-check of 1,600 of the 10,000 “legally present” names against a DHS database and found that 94% were eligible to vote.....that means if the ratio held for the whole 10,000, 600 people would be ineligible...in a state where the Senate election is a dead heat. A DMV spokesman is now cross checking all the names....early voting is set to start Thursday.

<><><> CHECKOUT VAN RENTALS---Dummycrats will be transporting vans full of so-called "voters"---Ebola patients, illegals, minorities, felons, etc. The Dummis pre-register names---then van riders vote the names----on lists provided by Dummies.

<><><> More Jaw-Dropping 'Progressive' Voter Fraud Everywhere You Look...

<><> <>Repub poll watchers should (1) count the people entering the polling place, and, (2) make sure that number matches the number of ballots given out.

<><><> O'Keefe found Udall's people casually advising urging people to commit felonies....urging that discarded ballots be filled out. A vote fraud ruse to get stupid suck-ups to vote twice?

<><> Rush is talking about N.C.----Blacks will show up and raise hell over not being registered. All they have to do is slow down the line until polls close. It wouldn’t have to be a secret......Repubs need to be ready---any person making a stink should be removed from the voting line and asked to sit in a reserved space....to get their grievances resolved, later....much, much later.

If you want to vote Republican you have to find the one pixel on the screen
