I don't think the machine lets you vote three times. You see what your selection is and have the opportunity to change it. Apparently, they are claiming that they are attemtping to select the dem and it is lighting up the repub. Same claims made here in Dallas on the first day of early voting.

It lets you review and correct your votes before you actually submit the ballot. It's entirely possible that this is really happening, and that somebody mis-programmed the correlation between touch screen and candidate -- it's something that's done by the county election people.

It should have been tested and retested, and tested again. But with these stupid Florida Dem counties, you can probably surmise that the QA never happened.
