Subject: Vote Flipping in NINE States, Turning Votes for Obama into
Votes for McCain
Vote Flipping & Vote Fraud In 9 States, Stealing Votes From Obama
http://thepoliticaljungle.blogspot.com/2008/11/vote-flipping-vote-fraud-in-9-states.html
Vote flipping and vote fraud has been documented by voters in 9
different states with early voting. The overwhelming number of
reports of vote flipping have come from voters trying to vote for
Barack Obama.
Could this actually be happening in America in 2008?
With only two days until the election, Barack Obama appears to be a
lock to win the election.
Electoral-vote.com has Obama with 364 electoral votes and McCain
with only 171. But massive, widespread vote flipping and vote fraud
could still steal this election from Barack Obama.
Vote flipping in the 2008 election was first reported in West
Virginia.
The Charleston Gazette is reporting that at least three early voters
in West Virginia are testifying that they tried to vote for Barack
Obama, but the electronic voting machine switched their votes to
John McCain.
West Virginia voter Virginia Matheney stated this about her attempt
to vote for Barack Obama: "When I touched the screen for Barack
Obama, the check mark moved from his box to the box indicating a
vote for John McCain."
What 81 year old Calvin Thomas told the Gazette is even more
troubling: "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."
Rather than fade away, reports of vote flipping in West Virginia
became more prevalent.
Now voters in SIX West Virginia counties are reporting vote flipping.
Voters in Jackson, Putnam, Berkeley, Ohio, Monongalia and Greenbrier
counties, all using ES&S iVotronic voting machines, are reporting
that when they voted for one candididate the machine selected a
different one.
West Virginia is not alone. Daily Kos is reporting that hundreds of
votes for Obama in North Carolina are not being counted because of
confusion over the ballot.
Vote flipping has also been reported in Davidson County, Tennessee.
The following is the testimony of one voter:
"A poll worker directed me to a touch screen voting machine &
instructedme how t o use it. I touched "Obama" for president &
nothing lit up. I touched 2 or 3 more times & still nothing lit up.
I called the poll worker back over to tell him I was having a
problem. He said I just needed to touch it more lightly. I tried it
2 or 3 more times more lightly with the poll worker watching & still
nothing lit up. The poll worker then touched it for me twice —
nothing lit up. The third time he touched the Obama button, the
Cynthia McKinney space lit up! The McKinney button was located five
rows below the Obama button. The poll worker just kind of laughed
and cancelled the vote. He hit the Obama button again & it finally
lit up. I continued on to cast the rest of my votes. After
completing the process & reviewing my votes, I went to the VOTE
page, hit the VOTE button & nothing happened. Again after several
tries, I called the poll worker over & he finally got the machine to
register my votes. Hurray — I voted! — or did I? I left the polling
place feeling uncertain."
Even Oprah Winfrey is reporting that the electronic voting machine
did not record her vote for Obama on the first try:
"When I voted yesterday electronically, the first vote that you vote
for on the ballot is the presidential candidate. It was my first
time doing electronic, so I didn't mark the X strong enough, or I
held down too long. Because then when I went back to check it, it
had not recorded my presidential vote."
These are not isolated incidents. Reports of rampant vote flipping
are now appearing from all over the nation:
There are also new reports out of Texas and Missouri that vote
flipping is taking place on ES&S iVotronic Touchscreens.
MarketWatch is reporting that vote flipping has occurred in the
states of Texas, Tennessee, Missouri, Nevada, Colorado, Georgia.
A county clerk in Colorado has removed a touch-screen voting machine
from service after it was discovered to be flipping votes from one
candidate to another.
And vote flipping is not the only problem. Vote fraud is another
huge problem early in this election:
Greg Palast is reporting that in Colorado, Republican Secretaries of
State have quietly purged one in six names from their voter rolls.
What do you think are the odds that most of those purged voters are
Democrats?
Palast is also reporting that more then 2.7 million newly registered
voters have had their registrations rejected under new procedures
signed into law by President Bush.
Even in New York there are problems. In Rensselaer County, New York,
officials insist that the misspelling of Barack Obama's name as
"Barack Osama" on absentee presidential ballots was an "innocent
mistake".
"It couldn't happen in America" you might say.....
"We are the greatest democracy on earth" you might insist.....
Well, the truth is that massive vote fraud took place in 2004.
Just check out the evidence of massive vote fraud from the 2004
election:

Just the other day new documents were discovered that reveal how
Ohio routed 2004 voting data through a company that hosted external
Bush Administration email accounts. Now isn't that a stunning
coincidence or what?
Are you just going to stand by and let them do it again?
Even CNN is beginning to report on this phenomenon.
The following video contains a CNN report on these voting machines
that is absolutely stunning:
