NBC confirms PA voting machine "malfunction," changing Obama votes to Romney. (Captured on video) - Polidicks

If this was rigged via software it'd [I]show the checkmark[/I] on the Obama button and [I]register the vote [/I]for Romney, hell it could register ANY vote for Romney It seems like a simple malfunction.

Maybe the machine broke from so many people voting for Obama

This is bullshit. The machines they used have the old touchscreens used on the crappy phones that you have to calibrate. They did this to save money and this was obviously the problem because I had a crappy phone that would do this all the time.

[QUOTE]after counting the vote result the new US president was* elected... Vladimir Putin.[/QUOTE] Funny comment

I still remember this one anecdote about some Republican bitch during the 2004 election sneaking behind voting machines in Philadelphia to unplug them and trying to run away, since Philly is pretty much the biggest Democratic force in Pennsylvania and her reasoning was that getting rid of a large Democrat zone could swing PA red. Of course it was a dumb plan that didn't work and they caught her, but that just shows the lows those scum are willing to sink to. I forget where I initially heard it, though.

[QUOTE=Gnomical;38347197]The thing with touch screens is, if it was a simple miscalibration, then it wouldn't select Obama when they select Romney. Ex: OTHER SHIT --------------------------------- ROMNEY (Machine thinks it is here) OBAMA (Press here) Ok so that would mean this would happen OTHER SHIT (Machine thinks it is here) --------------------------------- ROMNEY (Press here) OBAMA This is because the miscalibration means the touch screen will point to a location that is off center from where you touch, it doesn't flip flop like that. So it is really just Romney/Romney voters saying it does it so that he can call a recount if wanted. This shit is really bad too, because no matter what happens in this state, someone will demand a recount for this. But hey at least Florida didn't fuck up yet! Woo![/QUOTE] the video doesn't actually show anything else being selected, just obama.

It was calibrated that you had to press one certain tiny area just to select Obama.

[QUOTE=Zet;38349114]All the other selections worked just fine.

The video only shows the guy pressing Obama. All you have to support that claim is the word of a guy who was more interested in getting on TV than actually reporting the problem (in the reddit thread he deliberately avoided answering which polling place and which voting machine was broken) electronic voting machines are fucking terrible, but get over yourselves, there's no conspiracy.

[QUOTE=VinLAURiA;38348815]but that just shows the lows those scum are willing to sink to. I forget where I initially heard it, though.[/QUOTE] Basing an opinion on a large group on one person is pretty stupid.

[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;38349041]the video doesn't actually show anything else being selected, just obama.[/QUOTE] But they reported "if i hit romney it went to obama". I was saying, that is impossible if it is a calibration error, either way the video was really shitty and didn't really show us the full extent of the problem. The news just jumps on it anyway for ratings.

[QUOTE=Rents;38346283]Isn't it mostly volunteers that set these things up? Someone just didn't bother calibrating the touch sensor by the look of it,[/QUOTE] you didn't read the article did you

[QUOTE=Trumple;38350552]you didn't read the article did you[/QUOTE] I don't really trust what some guy off of the internet says, plus the fact he didn't record the part that showed it was rigged rather than just miscalibrated makes me suspicious.
