West Virginia Voters Using Corrupted Voting Machines?

   We all knew that it would not be long before the stories about machines picking the wrong candidate would surface.

At least three early voters in Jackson County had a hard time voting for candidates they want to win.

Virginia Matheney and Calvin Thomas said touch-screen machines in the county clerk's office in Ripley kept switching their votes from Democratic to Republican candidates.

"When I touched the screen for Barack Obama, the check mark moved from his box to the box indicating a vote for John McCain," said Matheney, who lives in Kenna.

Calvin Thomas, 81, who retired from Kaiser Aluminum in Ravenswood in 1983 and now lives in Ripley, experienced the same problem.

"When I pushed Obama, it jumped to McCain. When I went down to governor's office and punched [Gov. Joe] Manchin, it went to the other dude. When I went to Karen Facemyer [the incumbent Republican state senator], I pushed the Democrat, but it jumped again.

"The rest of them were OK, but the machine sent my votes for those top three offices from the Democrat to the Republican," Thomas said.

Deputy Secretary of State Sarah Bailey said, "When we received a call about this, we immediately called the county and told them to recalibrate the machines to make sure the finger-touch [area] lines up with the ballot.

   This my friends is what I call election fraud made possible by both the Republican Party and the makers of the electronic voting machines. You will soon hear such bullshit as " software glitch " or whatever, but that is not true.

   Remember the last two Presidential elections? All of these software glitches always favor the Republicans and never the Democrats.  That is not a glitch, that is theft. Only two options with the software. The stuff has been hacked and programmed to switch votes to the Republicans, or the machines are programmed to switch votes in the first place.

    Keep an eye on your vote, people. Take a camera phone with you and get a picture of your vote (s). We cannot allow another theft in a Presidential election, especially this one.
