Pay Attention!

Friend sent this to me.

Check it and have a phone number handy:
Yesterday a friend voted early at a polling location in Austin. She voted straight Democratic. When she did the final check, lo and behold every vote was for the Democratic candidates except that it showed she had voted for Bush/Cheney for president/vice pres.

She immediately got a poll official. On her vote, it was corrected. She called the Travis County Democratic headquarters. They took all her information, and told her that she wasn't the first to report a similar incident and that they are looking into it.

So check before you leave the polling booth, and if anything is wrong, get it corrected immediately. Report any irregularities to your local Democratic headquarters. Make sure you pass this along to your friends.

...hopefully this is all over the airwaves by tomorrow...

The Texas voting fraud is for real.

I called the Austin office (Dem. Nat. Comm.) 512-637-1737
and they said that it has been happening a lot. They don't know why
but the machines seem more "sensitive" this year and that every voter MUST
check their summary as the presidential choice often rolls over to the
republican choice if you vote straight democrat.

Here is there website.

and their main . in DC 202-863-8000
I would advise picking each race individually. Take your time when you vote.

Here's another story along the same lines from Albequerque: http://abqjournal.com/elex/246845elex10-22-04.htm?lrailThe voter beware!

If we can make an ATM that doesn't fuck up every 5th person's transaction, why can't we have voting machines that work?
