That is interesting and I think the sensitivity of the screen is suspect, but I don't think this is voter fraud....we'll see. Looks like a machine configuration problem.

To me.....it looks like his finger is kind of touching the gap between the two choices, which I believe should be further apart.

Maybe I'm wrong. I vote with a machine similar to this, but our choices are not so close to each other. It's also blatantly obvious that the machine registered a vote for the democrat, so the voter can correct it before he/she hits "submit".

You guys are delusional and seeing what you want to see. First off, fingers are typically round on the end - the portion off his finger hitting the screen first is likely hitting the republican area. Second, the camera angle is very important in that it may look like the top of his finger is over the democrat line, but in fact it may not be, and at the very least is barely over the line. If a machine is calibrated such that the selection boxes touch each other, then the calibration program was written/designed by an idiot.

Either way, this happens in the democrats favor probably greater than 95% of the time. That in itself is an indicator of purposeful fraud and anyone who doesn't admit that is either lying or delusional.

I'm not sorry a retard can't touch the correct box on a screen. Regardless, surely you have to hit an enter button or something to verify your vote, correct? Or would that be too easy?

How many voters are disenfranchised? If every republican in Rock County Illinois presses the line between the two candidates like the guy in the video does the 7/10ths of 1% of the voters in Illinois will have been disenfranchised. While one is too many that number is about the same as the number of people who don't get their vote counted due to being named the wrong name.....

Are you talking about the average voter being smart enough to notice? Lol

Look, the purpose of these machines is to get it correct. Having votes close enough where larger fingers or nails can accidentally register the wrong vote is MORONIC. So, when calibrated, there is no f'ing way it should be that sensitive between the 2 choices!

There's just so much fail in a situation like this, it's truly embarrassing to think we are putting up with things like thia

Looks like the person is hitting the republican candidate with the tip of their finger and the vote is cast for them as it should.

They hovered over the democrat before they actually hit the republican. What is the issue here??

I could only think that the party pushing voter ID would he less likely to be accused of voter fraud. But I don't buy that it's done by both parties equally. That's a cop out by the liberals when they get caught doing something unethical or criminal.

agree, looked like to me he was creating a story. Seemed he was putting the weight of his finger on the tip and selecting the dem on purpose to make a news story

ensuring your vote is for the proper person/side is the same responsibility as ensuring that you are registered prior to voting day, have an ID, etc

if your vote is made in error due to the machine, alert the clerk or polling officials

I don't see how anyone can say that first click in the video was him touching the dem's name!
Please explain.

Now I do see the possibility that his touch is getting close to the line on subsequent touches, but remember that fat part of the finger is CLEARLY covering the republican and the camera angle is from behind giving more if an illusion of being over the line with the very tip of his finger. IMO, he would have to have the finger almost straight perpendicular to the screen to have his tip register the top box without touch the bottom box.

But again, that first touch is NOT slow and is clearly not over the line.

On top of that, there is.a DOCUMENTED case of this happening to an actual candidate who's vote kept lighting up his opponent's name and had to change it numerous times in front of election officials to get his vote for himself in...

These are touch screen computers. Anyone who knows anything about calibrating a touchscreen knows how easy they can be manipulated.
