170. Showing off my ignorance here..
Edited on Wed Aug-09-06 06:00 AM by Laha
But when something like this happens;
Less than one hour into the voting day, multiple problems with the electronic voting machines have arisen. McKinney precinct watchers are reporting machines down already, insecure machines, and at least one 4th Congressional District precinct without McKinney's name on the ballot, but with her opponent's name on it.

Midway Elementary School, at 7:20 am, voter came into vote and went thru the check in procedure, she put the card in the machine and went to the poll manager; the poll manager did not address the issue. The voter left in disgust. The McKinney campaign has the voter's name. And an eyewitness report, too.


Why can you not call the police? If I went to vote and encountered problems like these, I wouldn't leave the polling station until both the police and the media were informed, and pictures taken of the offending issues. And if they wouldn't allow me to call the police there, I would kick up such a fuss that you can be damn sure the police would be called anyway. This isn't right. How are they getting away with it?

Edited for spelling
