What do elections boards do the 90% of the time they're not running elections?

Why are they always surprised by the failure of their systems?

Well, it says only 4 were down. 70 technicians should be able to handle that.

They need to check these machines well in advance of an election.

Come on, Fontes, it does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out!

I remember election officials being VERY concerned about electronic voting about the time the elder brother Coward Bush was elected, but then had no problems with that once he was proved to me a milquetoast, and their god the Fraud was selected and anointed.

I'm in Arizona and I voted this morning without any problem. The "new" part of the voting process was the touchscreen sign-in/voter ID verification terminal, but after that it was the same paper card to hand-fill out and the same old roller machine that you insert your ballot into when you're done.

The only glitch was in the people manning the polls. The wife and I were only the second and third people to vote at that station an hour in, and the volunteers, God bless 'em, still were learning the new sign-in system themselves.

All election laws since 1960 should be erased.

” Rep. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) is largely favored to win the race above both Trump loyalists, and on Tuesday received an endorsement from Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), whose seat they are vying for.”

If there we any doubts in the minds of AZ voters, this should show you how McSally is going to represent us if we don’t get Ward in.

So, I haven’t voted yet.

I’m I not going to be counted?

Early voters are at work and voted by mail. Many voters today complaining about faulty machines probably don’t comprehend the instructions.

Well, they're certainly not vetting the registration rolls for the dead, the multiple state voters and the ineligible!

Telling the press they are surprised is not the same as actually being surprised. I’m sure they have been practicing their “surprised” faces and voices for the past month.

Ariz. officials knew of issues with voting machines a day before Tuesday's primary

Are these machines from the company owned by soros?

Arizona had better get it’s act together before the November election. My husband voted in our small town outside of Phoenix this morning. There were only 2 people ahead of him in line and he was there 30 minutes. 30 MINUTES!! Our election will be stolen if the poll workers aren’t properly trained and CHECK EACH PERSON’S RIGHT TO VOTE!

When I went in to vote they scanned my drivers license and it said it didn’t recognize me. Fortunately I had my voter ID with me so they checked that and I was allowed to vote and then a democrat ballot was printed out for me. All together with all this and the lack of parking it was a terrible experience.

if it’s programmable, it can be rigged, if it is networked, it can be hacked. if it can be hacked/rigged, there needn’t be evidence thereof. if you know this, and DON’T try to rig elections in your favor, you’ll lose to those who do.

Just think that some third world countries have more voter integrity and far less “irregularities” than the USA.

Any one of those techs can install any software they like on those machines. Only fools allow electronic voting.

Here is a similar story:

Fontes said the contractor in charge of the voting machines did not set them up on time at several locations.

Must be the "La Raza Voting Machine Company".....
