Voting Machine Caught on Camera Casting Ballot for Dem

ed11563 · Guru

I watched this several times, to see whether any of the voter's other fingers came in contact with (or very close to) the touch screen at the same time.

One issue with touch screens is that if they are touched in two places at the same time, they home in on a point midway between the two points of contact.

I couldn't see whether that was happening here.

That possibility, tied in with the speed of the tap on the screen, makes me wonder whether the voter making the video was doing that on purpose,

to have a worthwhile You Tube video.

The only other thing I can think of is, a programming error. BUT if it was a programming problem, it would have been consistent, the voters would have reported it, and the machine would have been taken out of service. And there would be a big investigation.

Think about it. Would it really be that hard for some smart hacker to hack voting machines? Not.

A couple of programmers I knew at the time, told me that's how Ronald Reagan won his landslide victory for his second term.

I figured it was his commanding personality.

I watched the video some more. There is a skip while the finger was getting to the screen at one time, and we do not see the right side of the touch screen.

I think the real touch could have been on the Democratic line on the right side. Clearly the video was edited.

We had computer voting for Reagan? Hmm.

I LOVE THIS GUY !!!

I've been talking about this kind of computer fraud rigging elections for decades.

If enough people watch this and believe it, maybe we could all go back to the old lever-type voting machines that literally created a paper trail.

But the problem remains that it's easiest to rig an election --- any election --- by rigging the computers that tabulate the votes when they're reported by the individual voting machines and individual districts.

Elections go to the ones who control the vote COUNTING, and these days that means the ones who have the best hackers.

You don't need to rig the voting machines, just the COMPUTERS that are tabulating the results.

So do want to produce some evidence or just toss bullschitt around?

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

There was voter fraud in NH, not computer related but brought in people to vote. thing is voting records apparently are easy to obtain. they find the people less likely to show up to vote, go in and say they are such and such and vote.

That is why every state should require photo I.D. to vote.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Absolutely!

Evidence of what, exactly? Could you be a bit more specific?

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Evidence that there was massive voter fraud resulting in Reagans landslide victory. You know the first thing u said? Sheesh.

No, what I said was, "I figured it was his commanding personality."

I also said I'd been told by two programmers I knew that it was entirely possible to rig the vote tabulating COMPUTERS at the time. POSSIBLE.

But, go ahead, misquote me, or misinterpret what I'm saying if that makes you happy. furious

Yes. And your point was to try to toss that out there as if there was impropriety. Guess u aren't used to getting called out on baloney.

Did you actually watch the video you posted???

*yawn* a video almost exactly like this came out last election, and the one before. When is was the presidential election is was casting a vote for Romney when the person tried to vote for Obama. I don't remember the details of the one before that.
Probably a trick designed to rile people up. Otherwise, why make a video of yourself voting?

Yes i watched it. Your point Is what?

When it's done right there IS NO PROOF. The hacker's virus deletes itself and leaves no record of having been there.

What kind of proof are you requesting? Someone admitting to and proving that they committed treason?

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Proof to support your absurd claim that aliens from space hacked Reagan's election.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

But, you don't have any so instead just toss around spurious, disparaging comments in an attempt to cast a negative light on outcomes you don't like.

Aliens??? From SPACE ???

Are you okay?

If you said that to me face to face, I'd be evaluating you for slurred speech, movement problems, and looking for other signs of inebriation or stroke.

You usually make a lot more sense than this.

I say it was staged. It happens every election, and for various parties. I am not about to cry conspiracy or hacker off of it.

Yes, I agree. It would have been easy to stage this.

Probably we've all seen computer tricks where no matter where you put the cursor, it goes to and highlights something you don't want.

This didn't even have to be in a real voting booth.

Could have been out of calibration. Here is a demostration of one in WV that is out of calibration, selects below the actual touvh. Funny thing is once the tech recalibrates it it is still out of wack.

Yeah, which is why I personally do not like computer voting. I think it's bunk.

Maybe you didn't actually read what I said. Isn't H***** the one who routinely misreads and twists things?

well, that whole paper ballot thing didn't work out so well in Florida in 2000. just sayin'.

there's been voter fraud for years. one of the widest quotes of Joseph P. Kennedy was that he wasn't paying for a landslide, just a win for JFK in 1960.
