It's starting - Michigan Warns of Issue With Some Dominion Voting Machines
|
[MSN-Newsweek] The Michigan Department of State is warning a programming issue with some machines made by Dominion Voting Systems will make casting a ballot "more inconvenient" for some voters.
Voters with disabilities and others in the battleground state can use Dominion Voter Assist Terminals (VATs) to help them mark their ballots.
People using the machines will have to carefully follow instructions to verify their ballot selections or they will receive an error message, the department said in a press release.
The error message comes up if a voter selects the "straight party" option at the start of the process but then casts their vote for candidates of different parties later on.
"Although the issue will not stop people from voting or making their preferred selections, and it will not change anyone's votes, it will make the process more inconvenient for some voters using the VATs," the department said.
The issue only affects voters in Michigan counties that use equipment from Dominion Voting Systems, the release said. Each early voting site and polling place in those counties has at least one VAT. A list of the voting equipment by county can be viewed on the department's website here.
Newsweek has contacted the Michigan Department of State and Dominion for further comment via email.
Voters using VAT machines "will have to select either the 'straight party' option if they wish to vote straight ticket or vote for each race on the partisan selection of the ballot if they wish to split their ticket," the department said.
"While this is the process used in some other states, it is not the standard in Michigan, where voters have the option to vote straight party but then override their party selection for individual races. If a voter using the Dominion VAT votes straight party but then splits their ticket, the voter will receive an error message," it continued.
