Yet another "calibration" issue in Maryland voting machines..........

Oh, dear me those pesty machines............


Voting machines that switch Republican votes to Democrats are being reported in Maryland.

“When I first selected my candidate on the electronic machine, it would not put the ‘x’ on the candidate I chose — a Republican — but it would put the ‘x’ on the Democrat candidate above it,” Donna Hamilton said.

“This happened multiple times with multiple selections. Every time my choice flipped from Republican to Democrat. Sometimes it required four or five tries to get the ‘x’ to stay on my real selection,” the Frederick, Md., resident said last week.

Queen Anne County Sheriff Gary Hofmann said he encountered the problem, too, personally.

  1. HA, HA, HA now there is another voting machine “calibration” error now in Maryland.

    I find it hilarious every “calibration” error always switches republican to democrat. It never happens that democrat is switched to republican.

  2. Cute to think the problem can still be voted away. My trigger doesn't get confused when I cast a vote...

  3. Have a couple of election coordinators disappear, or show up dead, and calibration won't be necessary. The problem will disappear along with them.
