More "unexplained" vote flipping from ES&S vote systems

[SoCalDemocrat]

I can explain it. It is called deliberate fraud. I am so beyond fed up. WTH they are not going to have it independently examined? They should have computer forensics experts going over the in memory state as well as the software line by line. Hell post that code to the internet and let the bloggers go to work on it. We'll find out what they did quick and at no charge to the taxpayer. We don't need some uninformed or possibly partisan county elections official "observing" while ES&S erases any trace of their misdeeds from the machine.

Again, the memory and software need to be independently inspected. Tests need to be run to duplicate what happened, and we need an independent report explaining exactly how it happened with 100% transparency.

Arkansas Election Officials Baffled by Machines that Flipped Race

Bruce Haggard, an election commissioner in Faulkner County, Arkansas, is baffled by a problem that occurred with two voting machines in this month's state primary elections. The machines allocated votes cast in one race to an entirely different race that wasn't even on the electronic ballot. The problem resulted in the wrong candidate being declared victor in a state House nomination race.

"I don't understand how it could possibly happen," Haggard told Threat Level.

The problem occurred with two touch-screen voting machines made by Election Systems & Software, which were the only machines used in Faulkner County's East Cadron B voting precinct.
