Vote for a Republican in Crook County and it turnes into a Dem. vote.........................NO KIDDING.

Calibration error’ changes GOP votes to Dem in Illinois county

CHICAGO — Early voting in Illinois got off to a rocky start Monday, as votes being cast for Republican candidates were transformed into votes for Democrats.

Republican state representative candidate Jim Moynihan went to vote Monday at the Schaumburg Public Library.

“I tried to cast a vote for myself and instead it cast the vote for my opponent,” Moynihan said. “You could imagine my surprise as the same thing happened with a number of races when I tried to vote for a Republican and the machine registered a vote for a Democrat.”

The conservative website Illinois Review reported that “While using a touch screen voting machine in Schaumburg, Moynihan voted for several races on the ballot, only to find that whenever he voted for a Republican candidate, the machine registered the vote for a Democrat in the same race. He notified the election judge at his polling place and demonstrated that it continued to cast a vote for the opposing candidate’s party. Moynihan was eventually allowed to vote for Republican candidates, including his own race.

Moynihan offered this gracious lesson to his followers on Twitter: “Be careful when you vote in Illinois. Make sure you take the time to check your votes before submitting.”

Cook County Board of Elections Deputy Communications Director Jim Scalzitti, told Illinois Watchdog, the machine was taken out of service and tested.

“This was a calibration error of the touch-screen on the machine,” Scalzitti said. “When Mr. Moynihan used the touch-screen, it improperly assigned his votes due to improper calibration.”

the odds defying fact that it is always miscalibrated to to switch Republican votes/.

A study was done by the gov. here in Ohio a few years ago and the programmer testified at a hearing that he programed the voting machine and could pass that program to all the machines in the state and we still have this crap.
My guess is that the powers that be don't want us peons to have any say.

IMO a very fair punishment for people stealing my/our FREEDOMS by under handidly changing the voting results. The current punishment for voter fraud
is a slap on the wrist......................if that! To think such a lax penalty is worthwhile for raping the Constitution is beyond logic. If another nation tried
to defeat us in a war we would fight them BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooo not with the fucking homegrown commies.
