Philadelphia Daily News: “Despite a couple hard-fought state House battles, on a light-turnout Primary Election Day, the only thing people wanted to smash were the voting machines. Hundreds failed across the city.”
The report goes on to quote a city commissioner who says that between “200 and 300” of their voting machines broke down yesterday.
Working on a bunch of stuff…so more later…
How many election workers broke down?

Soundly…… :\
This from Adams County PA: More machine problems.
Significant undervoting. In one precinct, and unoppsed Democratic candidate received 0 votes out of 74 cast, a state house candidate received 2, and I (state Democratic Committee) received 1 vote.
The randomness of the error is unexplained at this moment. Other races in the same district had no apparent problem. Also, if all effected candidates got 0 votes that would be one thing, but that’s not what happened.
So… this was a glaring error I uncovered and reported. What if the error weren’t so glaring? What is it is "only" 10 or 15%?
This system is from Election Systems and Software, model M-100.
I need help to get this challenged. It seems that asking for 6-8 precincts to be audited to verify the accuracy of the machines is justifiable. Any advice? Send to rlund@thechristmashaus.com.
