2002 Florida Govenors Race: S. Fl. touchscreens default to "Jeb Bush"
Advertisements [?]
Broward County, Florida. November 2002. ES&S.
Machines register votes for opponents.

On Election Day, callers to a Florida radio talk show complained of ““broken”” ES&S Votronic touch-screen voting machines, according to the Drudge Report. ““I voted for McBride, but the machine counted it as Bush. It did this three times. Thepolling worker finally said, ‘‘We have to re-program this machine.’’ Another person was
having the same trouble while I was there,”” a voter told Neil Rogers on his highly rated AM radio show.*
