I thought this was all old news.
Ok, that it was Romney personally might be new, but we've known that the voting
machines were rigged since they started being pushed.
And we've known that they were being pushed for two reasons:
1: to make money for the friends who own the company that makes them
2: because they are so easily riggable.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

According to some researchers, Romney may have already achieved some favorable
results from the voting machines during the primaries. See here. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

In theory, the voting machine holes that every security researcher and his
brother write about could swing an election. In practice, except for the local
and state wide races, it would be difficult to manipulate an election due to the
sheer number of different voting machine in use. It is much easier (like Ohio
with Sunday voting) to manipulate the voting procedures in order to get more of
one political party to vote than another.
I'm not willing to credit some Machiavellian motive to these security holes;
these are much more likely to be the result of lazy programmers working for
companies focused on making a short term sale.
Most popular machine used today is an OCR ballot reader, (refer to MarkSense),
these machine read a marked up paper ballot, record the vote. and collect the
ballot. Since there is both a tabulated vote and a collected ballot, it is very
easy for an election judge to verify the vote. In order to do this, at least 2
different judges must open the machine and examine the ballots.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

romney family???? Consipracy? Please stick with FACTS,
otherwise could be slander or libel.
Groklaw is about facts, does anyone have any?
Or is this just a bunch of chickens clucking because they
think that a fox is near the chicken coop? If not FOX,
then they cluck anyway.

Bush v Gore - why were those chad machines not cleaned for
15 to 20 years (if ever)?
Duh - but, no one even wondered why they were not, except
that the polling place operators were to dumb maybe, just
put the boxes out year after year where they were heavy and
full? Interesting to think about? Was this a tactic used
to sway local elections, and that the locals, they really
did not care about national election results, as local
control of elections was more important to certain pocket
books (just a wild theory, but what if)?
What if, by not cleaning out the punch machines, for 20
years, if you could disqualify a certain percentage of votes
every election. Most important would be local elections
where key JOBS in government were handed out, and local
permit systems for building etc needed to be tended to
properly? So, ever think about that one?
Wink and a nod, one or two people knew the story maybe?
But, if corruption of the polling place was done by NOT
cleaning out those punch hole ballot tablets so that they
filled up and the voter could not with all their strength
penetrate the punch hole to vote... Do you think?
If the case, then they might have had the perfect election
control system, the thing to have looked at is if the punch
card boxes used to vote were cleaned out in certain voting
areas and not cleaned out in others (in the same city or
town).
Why was that possibility not looked into then?

Vote flipping is difficult to detect because the vote totals remain
the same for each precinct.
In one of several possible scenarios, an
instruction is given to a precinct level voting machine or to a county-level
central tabulator. The corrupted totals from precincts are sent from county
election officials to state elections board and published as final results.

The group’s analysis is based
on raw data from primary sources, local precincts, and state and county election
records.
