The Official Voting Snafu Thread

A thread devoted to stories about voting machine "malfunctions" and other voting-related sketchiness, which somehow always seems to favor the GOP.

For starters, in Texas, votes for Beto are mysteriously being changed to Cruz.

People in Georgia are complaining that some older voting machines are not registering the votes for Abrams

I don't even want to hear the outrage now. I've been saying to you all for months that it doesn't fucking matter how many people vote when we have no election integrity. And then I get called a troll and they bray on and on: "JUST VOTE STOP BEING SO LAZY GET OUT THE VOTE EVERYBODY VOTE LA LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU STOP TRYING TO KILL THE MOOD WE WILL NEVER ACKNOWLEDGE THE LAST 20 YEARS OF OVERT ELECTION FRAUD!!!". Fucking idiots and assholes.

I agree with r5

But, but, but, I worked so hard canvassing

I think there is more outrage now because it's so blatant. I mean, you have Kemp openly proud of the fact that he is stealing and rigging the election in Georgia. The Supreme Court has been gutting voting rights since 2013, and gave them another blow earlier this year. I don't see it get any better anytime soon.

r8 are you familiar with Bev Harris? It is not 'more blatant' now; you're just finally paying attention now.

Republicans are all crooked and gullible...that is exactly why Trump decided to represent the Republican party. He might not be as dumb as he seems.

r10, but you just might be as dumb as you seem. What do you think that 'Captain Obvious' statement contributes to this conversation?

Thanks for making the thread, OP. I posted this in another thread that in NC, people are finding their Dem votes switched to GOP. This twitter thread discusses it a bit more and steps you can take to avoid incorrectly voting for a GOP bastard.

I get people don't want to hear more bad news, but if your state gives paper receipts, please verify. Unfortunately they do not in Georgia so I don't know the answer, but be very careful and attentive when casting your ballots! Before you cast your ballot, double check to make sure your vote has not been switched, if it has please alert someone immediately that the machine is not allowing you to vote correctly.

It sucks, but better to be informed than to be like some who aren't bothering to check their paper receipts.

I think this will only make more young people vote.

“Oooo I want to see if my vote changes”

Use stories like these to be proactive and vigilant when you head to the polls. Can't be an idiot and act like not voting would be better, that is a lie. Maybe you are a troll that thinks by being negative, it will make some DLers stay home for these elections, but you would be wasting your time since I don't see that happening.

I just heard the ACLU is now suing over the lack of a polling place in Dodge City, Kansas.

Any more?

I asked in the Trick or Treason thread if it is legal to take a picture of your ballot to document it, and someone posted this incredibly helpful link. It is not legal to take a picture everywhere FYI, it varies by state.

The only "snafu" is Americans and their insane penchant for scapegoating.

We really do get the dumbest trolls here, don't we? They're not even trying anymore.

It has been really bad the past two days, r22. The revelation of the MAGAbomber has them spinning. Muriel needs to put her weekend plans on hold and do a little exterminating.
