[WEEKLYSTANDARD] The Virginia Republican party says there are problems with some touchscreen voting machines in Virginia Beach and other communities. The party sent out a video of one voter attempting to vote for Republican House member Scott Rigell. As the voter's finger touches Rigell's box, the vote is registered for Suzanne Patrick.
The state GOP has written a letter to Virginia's department of elections alerting the agency to similar irregularities they've had reported elsewhere in Virginia Beach as well as in Arlington, Prince William, and Spotsylvania counties.
Voters in Illinois have also provided video evidence that their votes for Republicans during early voting last month were switched to the Democratic candidates. Local elections officials had admitted some previous problems with the touchscreen vote machine calibration. |
