I was talking to my dad today, after he got home from early voting. My parents live in Union County, Ga., and voting there is being done via touch-screen terminals. He said that each time he tried to vote for a Democrat and press that option, he was taken to a screen to write in candidate. He eventually called a poll worker over to witness it, and they said that the machine wasn't operating properly (duh!) He eventually did get to vote the way he wanted.
I've forwarded them the phone number for the Georgia Democrats Voter Protection Hotline, which is 678-792-3664, and I'll be following up to encourage them to call it.
Just wanted to get that out there for others who might be voting by touch-screen.

was not defective it was just doing what it was programed to do.

All voting machines are #ed and have documentation that goes w/ them ....
if what you say is accurate then the voting machine should be found and
tested ......
Be a tiger about this please because the only way Obama would lose is by
election fraud.
