    Default N Carolina voters say votes cast for Romney came up Obama on machine

    Looks like the Democrats' "Final Solution to the Romney Problem" has begun.

    The article says it's not a "conspiracy", but just a random problem that needs to be fixed.

    But why do these "random problems" somehow always wind up favoring Democrats?

    Guilford Co. voters say ballot cast for Romney came up Obama on machine

    GREENSBORO, N.C. –The presidential election is just around the corner and voting issues have already become a problem in Guilford County. On Monday, several voters complained that their electronic ballot machine cast the wrong vote. All the complaints were made by people who voted at the Bur-Mil Park polling location.

    One of the voters, Sher Coromalis, says she cast her ballot for Governor Mitt Romney, but every time she entered her vote the machine defaulted to President Obama. I was so upset that this could happen,” said Coromalis.

    Guilford County Board of Elections Director George Gilbert says the problem arises every election. It can be resolved after the machine is re-calibrated by poll workers. “It’s not a conspiracy it’s just a machine that needs to be corrected,” Gilbert said.

    After the third try, Coromalis says she was able to get her vote counted for Gov. Romney but was still annoyed. “I should have just mailed it in,” Coromalis said.

    Marie Haydock, who also voted at the Bur-Mil Park polling location, had the same problem. “The frustration is… every vote counts,” said Haydock.

    Elections officials say the machines have been fixed as of Tuesday, and no problems have been reported since.
    [At least, no more such problems have been noticed. -LA]

    I don't think there is any full proof way voting but as a longtime software guy, I don't like computerized voting.

    We must remember. It's only a Random problem if Democrats are accused of tinkering with the Voting methods.

    But. Like Virginia Senator, Bobby Scott said, only this morning. If there is ANY problem where Republicans ARE, and MUST be involved. The best thing any Democrat can do is...CONTACT A.G. Holder to get to the bottom of it.
    Problem is. If SCOTT, and HOLDER get involved. It is the BOTTOM. Just like the place where Whale Turds settle.
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.
    GOD BLESS AMERICA - IN GOD WE TRUST !

    It's like voter cheating by ineligible people voting --- it's almost always Democrats, so of course that means it's Republicans' fault for bringing it up.


    It's only a matter of time before we have an entire election stolen by these computer voting machines being programmed by one party or the other. I've been expecting it for years.
