"pre-voted" for Democratic incumbant Bob Menendez, or were otherwise inoperable when voters sought to cast votes for Kean...




Just coincidence, I am sure.

"Oh, my mistake. That ballot was intended for one of our dead voters."

Zero tolerance time.

Closer?

Many would say we have been one for quite some time!

How about when we went off the Gold Standard in the 70's?

It really started in 1913 when the crooks in the Senate, House and White House pitched a HUGE softball to the newly formed Federal Reserve Bank.

Andrew Jackson was probably doing high rotation in his grave that day.

I am not surprised one bit. The New Jersey Democrat party is about as corrupt as you can get.

This actually might be a good thing.

Sounds like voters aren't pressing the vote button when they are done so the vote is incomplete. The next voter comes in and this is what he sees.

The voting machines aren't broken. The Dems operating the voting machines are broken.

We need to come up with some form of technology that bypasses the computer glitches and allows people to cast a vote for the person they want to represent them.

Perhaps a piece of paper ... we could call them ballots ... with all of the candidates' names, maybe even a space for a "write-in" candidate.

Voters could use some sort of writing implement ... a pen or a Sharpee ... to circle the name of the candidate or make some mark to indicate their choice.

Those votes could be counted by computer or, if necessary, by hand. And there would be a record of the votes. We could call it a "paper ballot."

No ... that would be too clever. We must rely on computers.

Andy Jackson was a financial idiot. His attack on the Bank of the United States was one of the worst examples of boneheaded class warfare this nation ever experienced.

Of course, those who do not understand finance are hysterical about Central Banking something NO modern nation will ever be without again.

I wouldn't put something like this past the imagination of some folks.

Especially from the cities and county's reporting this problem!

I voted noon time in Clifton, no problem and no voters.

Tho it's good that punch cards are mostly gone, only ~30% of states use a paper ballot capable of being machine read.

Don't tell me, lemme guess. They cried "RACISM!" when the investigators shot down their claim.

You mean that it's not illegal to vote from Republicans in NJ?

There's a first-hand report on another thread confirming the "pre-vote for Menendez" when they voted this morning.


"So if youz got some problem with dat, youz can take it up with my associate here from the union.

Yeah. I pushed the button until Allen's name had a check by it. How hard was that?

That pen and paper idea is lethal to Palm Beach Democrats, who would bleed to death from either paper cuts or lead poisioning. There's nothing too stupid that a Palm Beach Democrat couldn't do to mess things up.
