DU voters found out that by voting All Dems the machine changed their votes SO i wonder

[bluestarone]

Is it possible THIS happened 2016 in certain States, and was not noticed?? GREAT that people here reported this and we are watching CLOSELY this year!! A BIG TY to ALL!!!

1. Please ask for a paper ballot.

3. paper ballots are not always available

my precinct (TX-33) uses a touch screen device only. I voted straight Dem by selecting each and every slot individually

[33taw]

12. Can you request and absentee ballot?

[vlyons]

13. In Texas, To be eligible to vote early by mail in Texas, you must:

be 65 years or older;
be disabled;
be out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting by personal appearance; or
be confined in jail, but otherwise eligible.

Plus it has to be mailed to the early voting clerk in your county. Not certain what the deadline date is.

14. The deadline has come and gone

Had to be received before Friday.

15. I would look for a solution for future elections.

I lived in CO and we had mail in ballots. In WI we can ask for a paper ballot - I do every time. Sadly, only a few do at my precinct.

17. Try changing laws in Texas!

The party of voter suppression runs this state..

18. I live in Wisconsin, the Gerrymandered capitol of the US. I understand challenges.

I would find a way to challenge the process at the county level first.

2. In 2016 DU was hacked right about the time

when people would have been posting about it.

And yeah, people here are vigilant about noticing when that happens and informing others.

4. EXACTLY!!!!

Which is super GREAT!!!!!

5. I think it's been the other way around, mostly.

People on DU are finding out about it because articles about it happening are being written in Texas. I've yet to see some sort of situation where someone on DU discovers voter fraud, contacts the media and the media reports on it.

6. Curious if voting straight ticket the votes change if

voting straight REPUG ticket?? Anybody try it just to see?

[angstlessk]

7. So, if you vote straight DEM...you must scroll

through every vote, which shows DEM votes, till the LAST which is the vote for Beto?

[bluestarone]

8. Not from texas but someone here will answer for you

I believe you should pick them all independently tho.

[northoftheborder]

9. Yes that's what is supposed to happen.

I haven't voted yet, but will pay close attention if I vote straight ticket; haven't ever had that happen here in my county. I would raise a public stink about it if it did. I suppose you can start over on your vote, and check it again, or vote for each office individually.

Edit to add: I don't think it is possible to ask for a paper ballot here.

10. I could swear I heard this happening during one of the Obama elections

It was only when you chose straight dem ticket. I think if you took the time to select each one it didn't flip. I remember even seeing someone post a video of the selection flipping right before their eyes. Of course it was all explained away as some glitch in the machine.

[bluestarone]

11. I'm wondering if it does it if you select all REPUBS?

I bet not!

[scarytomcat]

16. yes it did happen

in the last few elections
the right has been pulling shit like this for a long time, back to the time of punch cards and confusing ballots
