This could have legs since CNN is inquiring on message boards.

Simple Calibration error nothing to see here.

Just what we need...fuel for Obozo to invalidate the election that we would have won fair and square. Maybe this is a Libtard prank or setup. If it’s real, I want those responsible fitted for stripes.

That may also be a fake. Watch it very, very carefully for little “jumps” indicating edits.

In any case, stuff like this is why I hate touchscreen machines. They used optical scan ballots here (fill in the circle, just like the SAT). Personally I think whatever the automated method, you should get a “receipt,” date/time stamped and with the precinct and number of the machine, with your voting choices on it.

That is what it looks like to me. He should try pushing at the bottom of the Obama button or a little lower.

In Texas, every machine is checked for accuracy before being put into service. We have had two or three machines in early voting that were not working correctly but it was caught before the voter punched the “vote” button and these machines were taken out of service and recalibrated and checked before being put back in service or were left out and not used again in this election.

Machines are just that, machines, and a few can screw up. The faulty ones in Texas were found and removed.

Remember, these machines are not connected to the internet so can’t be hacked.

You push "Romney" you get Romney. You push "Obama" you get Romney??

Why is this a problem?

This supposedly shows a touch screen tap for Obama causing the Romney check to light up.

Look at the 3 second mark. The finger jumps — there is a cut of some sort.

It’s probably fake.

That is a pretty funny video. Sounds like the Black Congressional Caucus needs to hold hearings on this.

I just voted in Farmers Branch, Texas. Paper ballot, hand marked. No shenanigans whatsoever.

God Bless Texas.

I call set up on this, to counter all the claims of other machines in other states, where Romney went to Obama.

There is not supposed to be CAMERAS in the voting areas. So how did this guy get this done? Obvious fake set up.

There is nothing in the video to show that this is a voting machine, or at a polling place, or occurring today. It could be an image on a computer screen, easily generated, with an animation showing the checkmark appearing as the user is touching the screen on his computer.

That said, the background noise adds some realism.

geez... who would sabotage a machine like this and make it so obvious as to highlight the selection right in front of your face with a big yellow highlighted box and giant green check mark? I mean, this is right out of a Simpsons episode... this is either edited video or a damaged screen layer. Who wouldn't notice that?
