HELT SJUKT.
Hur var det nu? Maskinerna är inte riggade?
"It involves a calibration issue regarding the machine."
EXAKT det som diverse hackers, experter osv sa att det var det man skulle manipulera om man ville rigga maskinerna.
Utdrag ur texten. Bedömer
bernad_law att det är substanslösa spekulationer om valfusk så radera i så fall mitt inlägg. Jag bedömer det som ett tydligt exempel.

A problem with the calibration of electronic voting machines in Lebanon County has caused 5-6 machines to represent straight Republican tickets as straight Democratic tickets, said Michael Anderson, director of the Lebanon County Bureau of Elections.
In these cases, the voter attempted to vote for the full Republican ticket, but noticed in the review screen that the vote was going to a straight Democratic ticket instead, Anderson said. They alerted their poll workers, who alerted the Bureau of Elections.
The Bureau of Elections has a software expert who was able to solve the problem in each case, he said. It involves a calibration issue regarding the machine. The Republican and Democratic straight tickets appear next to each other on the ballot.
In each case, the problem was resolved and the voter was able to successfully change their ballot to the desired ticket, Anderson said. He was not aware of anyone actually casting an incorrect ballot. He was not sure whether there were any instances of a straight Democratic ticket appearing as a straight Republican ticket.
The polling locations where the error occurred include Myerstown Community Library and locations in Annville Township and East Hanover, he said.
Cecelia McNaughton, judge of elections for Lebanon's 1st Ward West, confirmed one similar incident at the Lebanon Municipal Building. She said a man voting straight Republican ticket at 7:30 a.m. alerted her that the machine showed the Democratic slate of candidates. She cancelled the vote and the man completed his voting on another machine correctly. After notifying voter registration, within minutes a technician arrived and correctly recalibrated the machine.
