They tried to vote for Trump in Clinton Township. Of course there were issues.

They just interviewed an election judge in PA, and he explained that it had more to do with people being confused about how the ballots work than anything wrong. If these are the same people who haven’t voted in the last few elections, due to apathy, maybe they actually don’t know how to vote with newer technology.

Someone mentioned Trump was suing Pennsylvania also—not sure if that is true.

Default Rigged In Pennsylvania

Quote:
“Every time I would push a candidate for the Republican party, it would come up for the Democratic candidate,” said voter David Drane. Election judges in Clinton Township, Butler County confirmed there were issues with two of their eight automated voting machines. Most of the issues came when people tried to vote straight party ticket. However, others said they specifically wanted to vote for Republican Donald Trump only to see their vote switched before their eyes to Democrat Hillary Clinton. “I went back, pressed Trump again. Three times I did this, so then I called one of the women that were working the polls over. And she said you must be doing it wrong. She did it three times and it defaulted to Hillary every time,” Bobbie Lee Hawranko said.

Rigged machines. I hate you crooked people. You are as untrustworthy as your candidate.

Are you telling me you have never experienced a computer crash? It happens several times a week, no?

This purported issue seems to arise when someone tries to do a straight ticket voting and then change an individual candidate. The computer won't let you because you have selected a straight ticket voting. At least that's what I read.

Laura, do you know what I hate more than crooked people? The tools who pretend it's no big deal.

Calibration errors always change R to D, why is that?

I voted in PA, the machine seem to have worked just fine.

There is no paper trail in PA, that is quite concerning.

Of all the ways to rig an election, rigging it at the actual point of interface, where the voter can actually see it happen doesn't seem like the most productive means of rigging.

Well, this tool thinks that computer crashes and malfunctions are a given when the machines have to function 75 million times in one day. That's the way it is.

However, if there is a conspiracy of some sort, then you have every right to complain. You guys do realize that changes a few votes here and there at a polling location is not the way to change the election outcome. You have to hack into the state central station and change thousands of votes at a time. If the Democrats want to cheat like this, don't you think the machine would be rigged so that the voters do not see this glitch (change) at all - the voting preferences could be changed in the background, invisibly. With a state-by-state decentralized process, changing the outcome is virtually impossible.
