FLORIDA VOTERS CLAIM MACHINES 'BROKEN', VOTED FOR MCBRIDE, MARKED IT AS AS BUSH

"I voted for McBride, but the machine counted it as Bush. It did this three times. The polling worker finally said, 'We have to reprogram this machine. Another person was having the same trouble while I was there.'"

So claimed a caller to Southern Florida's WQAM-AM and the highly-rated radio talkprogram NEIL ROGERS SHOW.

"I'll tell you right now, this election is fixed!" roared Rogers, who has been in the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale market for more than 30 years. "Based on a few early calls, it is going to be a wild, wild time!"

Touch-screen and other high-tech voting machines make their full-scale debut Tuesday.

"The state that can't pour piss out of a shoe if the directions were printed on the bottom?"

No, Florida IS the State that took to the streets and stopped cold the Democrat's run at stealing the election.

537 votes in Fl. gave us GWB in the White House.

New Mexico went for Gore after a very close election, why don't I remember you guys storming the rooms where your Democrats were busy stuffing the ballot box?

This is what we did:

This is what you all did:

PRESIDENTIAL
The New Mexico race between Bush and Gore seesawed back and forth, with Bush having supposedly won it by four votes at one point. However, the final count ended up going Gore's way, bringing him five electoral votes closer to 270.

Oh no, it's her replacement. An extremely corrupt person who is already under investigation and hopefully after this fiasco, there will be enough evidence to throw her in jail for 10 years. Broward is like a mini-New Jersey; it's where the mafia resides for it's winter vacations.

I know how you feel. I live in the most conservative congressional district in New Jersey, and have to listen to the NJ-bashing all the time. It's no big deal.

But we have our district in order. We were the ONLY congressional district that voted for Bret Schundler for governor, and I can promise you that Forrester will win here as well.

But the really good news is that we'll be replacing our RINO, Marge Roukema, with a true-blue conservative. Scott Garrett will be one of the most conservative members of congress (pro-gun, pro-life, pro-small government) from anywhere. And he's from little old liberal New Jersey.

I guess this means that Miss Piggy's vote will count 5 times for McLawyer.

Actually it was implemented to prevent fraud. This time there are pubbie lawyers all over the corrupt demorat counties, so this could get very interesting.

Of course the Dems are going to "claim" that their vote was miscounted by the machine--so they can vote again, or cry "disenfranchisement!". But can anyone prove that it was the machine's fault and not the voter's?

I'm sure that there is a way for voters to "proofread" their choices before they press the Submit button.

Are they too stupid to do that?

If the machines are really mis-registering votes, how do the voters know that "after the fact"? Does the machine come out and say "Ha, ha, you think you voted for Bush, but you really voted for McBride!"

If voters make mistakes, their first ballot should be canceled before they are given another one.

Sounds like the fix didn't work. This time there are no punch cards to manipulate. Software hacking is a bit more sophisticated than punching extra holes in ballots.

Three times you voted for McBride, and three times it came out for Bush?

Remedy: keep voting!

Take it down, but if this proves out to be true, you will be the man!

What Broward and Palm Beach counties need is a good exorcism. Although I had no idea that Moron Demons existed, evidently they do and have entered the unsuspecting democrat residents of Fla. I shall light a candle for the plight of those poor, pitiful possessed imbeciles and pray that the spirits of Mo, Larry, and Curly would stop their Whoopwhoopwhoop-ing at the polls.
