No the owner wasn’t Jewish. Holy shit even 2004 was rigged.
Diebold: the controversial manufacturer of voting and ATM machines, whose name conjures up the demons of Ohio’s 2004 presidential election irregularities, is now finally under indictment for a “worldwide pattern of criminal conduct.” Federal prosecutors filed charges against Diebold, Inc. on Tuesday, October 22, 2013 alleging that the North Canton, Ohio-based security and manufacturing company bribed government officials and falsified documents to obtain business in China, Indonesia and Russia. Diebold has agreed to pay $50 million to settle the two criminal counts against it. This is not the first time Diebold’s been accused of bribery. In 2005, the Free Press exposed that Matt Damschroder, Republican chair of the Franklin County of Elections in 2004, reported that a key Diebold operative told Damschroder he made a $50,000 contribution to then-Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell's “political interests” while Blackwell was evaluating Diebold's bids for state purchasing contracts. Damschroder admitted to personally accepting a $10,000 check from former Diebold contractor Pasquale “Patsy” Gallina made out to the Franklin County Republican Party. That contribution was made while Damschroder was involved in evaluating Diebold bids for county contracts. Damschroder was suspended for a month without pay for the incident. Despite the scandal, he was later appointed as Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted's Director of Elections. The ghosts of 2004 election irregularities Diebold was at the center of Ohio’s 2004 election debacle, much of this captured in an article by Free Press Senior Editor Harvey Wasserman and this author, entitled, “Diebold’s Political Machine.” Walden "Wally" O'Dell, chairman of the board and chief executive of Diebold, was a long-time funder of Republican candidates. In September 2003, he held a packed $1,000-per-head GOP fundraiser at his 10,800-square-foot mansion Cotswold Manor in Upper Arlington, Ohio. He was feted as a guest at then-President George W. Bush's Texas ranch, joining a cadre of “Pioneers and Rangers” who pledged to raise more than $100,000 for the Bush reelection campaign. Most memorably, in 2003 O'Dell penned a letter pledging his commitment “to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the President.” O'Dell defended his actions, telling the Cleveland Plain Dealer “I'm not doing anything wrong or complicated.” But he also promised to lower his political profile and “try to be more sensitive.” But the Diebold boss' partisan cards were squarely on the table. Prior to the 2004 election, Blackwell tried to award a $100 million unbid contract to Diebold for electronic voting machines.
In my State ... ID is required ... They swipe the magnetic strip on your license or ID ...
They verify your address and program a card applicable to your precinct ...
The programmable electronic voting booth not only counts my votes correctly .
Perhaps some places just need better and more accountable/reliable equipment ...
And I am going to be pissed off if you make where I vote go back to the Stone Age
WE do not know that. Unless you are hanging around with Raffensparger, neither do you...
You get text with the record if you request one
Don't try to start passing laws that affect the way I am allowed to vote
Hey, I live in Michigan. We get the least droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes. The red states are the ones getting pounded.
I love it. 70 in November?

Four election vulnerabilities uncovered by a Michigan Engineer
All have solutions, some are implemented.news.engin.umich.edu
We need free and fair elections the American people can trust.
1. ban the electronic programmable voting machine
2. mandate all votes be counted day of election, not weeks after, no "postmarked" BS, mail ins are due a full 10 days before the election
3. a clear documentable paper trail of how everyone voted, and who voted
I think it’s a joke that with the technology we have that any non citizen can vote. Ridiculous. And with the technology we have, irregularities should be able to be caught right away.The problem isn't the machines. It's more in the registration system.
I can speak to that. I worked this election as an IT person, saw everything up close and personal.
Los Angeles county uses Smartmatic, and those machines are all paper ballots. None of them are connected to the internet. Each machine is a stand alone computer, with just a printer and a secure ballot box. The ballot boxes are secured every day and overnight, by a set of coded zip ties. If anyone tried to tamper with a seal, it is instantly and loudly visible. IT people are required to scan the seals every morning and every evening, which established overnight integrity.
How it works is, you check in at a desk, where the workers have iPads that are connected to LA's registration system. Once they've identified you, they print a ballot for you on the spot. The ballot has a personalized QR code on it, and it has all your choices for the precinct where you live. You take this paper ballot and walk over to the Smartmatic machine if your choice, feed the ballot into the machine, and vote. When you're done voting, the machine gives you the ballot back so you can look at it and make sure it's correct. Then, you put the ballot back in and it goes directly into the secure ballot box.
It's actually a very good system, probably one of the best in the country. If there's an issue, it's with the registration/lookup. And I only saw one mistake in 10 days of voting, with thousands of voters. Once and only once, someone who lives in Sun Valley was given a ballot for Lancaster. It was detected immediately, before the person had a chance to vote. In such a case the person is given a provisional ballot with the correct information and it's up to the officials on the back end to sort it out.
Yea and you loved him as much as you do trump. If you were wrong then perhaps you’re wrong now?It is the W crowd, the 911 Traitors.
It is easy to fudge and lie about that.
I think you are a big fucking liar who supports election fraud.
Yea and you loved him as much as you do trump
.
I don't support election fraud in any manner.
I am sorry you think the way you desire to vote is any more secure.
The way I desire vote doesn't involve hanging chads, how anyone interprets the marks I make on paper ...
Or crates of paper ballots someone pulls from under a table at 02:00 hrs in the morning pretending they are valid.
If that's what you want to pretend is more secure ...
I don't have a problem with that ... I am just not compelled to agree with that retarded shit.
If you don't have any confidence on how elections are conducted in your precinct ...
It's not my problem ... Take care of your fucking shit where you live ...

No, actually voted McCain in the primary, and switched to Libertarian in 2004 after W socialized senior drugs at a retail price while behaving like the left wing Zionist Fascist TRAITOR he really is...

Inquiry Confirms Top Medicare Official Threatened Actuary Over Cost of Drug Benefits (Published 2004)
Health and Human Services Department internal investigation confirms that then-Admr Thomas A Scully threatened to fire Medicare chief actuary Richard S Foster if he told Congress that drug benefit legislation would likely cost up to $600 billion over ten years, far more than White House figure...www.nytimes.com
Nobody alive hates Traitor W more than EMH. What W and Mukasey and Mueller did will put all of them in front of a firing squad... and once W is offed as the WORST TRAITOR IN US HISTORY he truly is, it will truly be...
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!
And if you were truly being honest, you'd admit that most Republicans are traitors and scum. Not really traitors and scum but part of the "deep state elite globalists" Nikki, Ron DeSantis, Lindsay Graham, Mitch.
You've been voting for these "traitors" for 40 years.
Go live in Brazil... or Venezuela...
no guarantee your provisions will provide a better result
That is complete bull. The machines are ripe for fraud, which is why you love them.
BTW - why did Traitor Joe get 11 million more votes than Kamala?
How many of those 11 million were FRAUDS?
