Not Exactly ‘AccuVote’: Diebold Machine Removed in Colo.Posted on Oct 30, 2008
A Diebold voting machine with the ironic name of “AccuVote” was impounded after a voter in Colorado’s Adams County noticed that the machine wouldn’t take a vote for a Democratic state Senate candidate. Luckily, the ever-vigilant Brad Blog is on the case.

Colorado, by state law, must have a paper trail for all electronic voting machines.

nrobi: It is hunting and killing wolves from the airplanes and not moose. As a person who has funded wolf restoration since the 1980’s in Alaska, I do not want to see Wolf killer Palin as President ever. As we know if McCain steals the election, she will not be satisfied being V.P. and don’t expect old John to be able to retain the job as President for very long with Sarah around.
Here John, try this new hunting hat on, the antlers look so good on you.
Anyone see the documentary “Hacking Democracy”? It explains it very well and shows just how easy it is to hack Diebold equipment and computer cards that have the votes registered on them.
NEVER TRUST A REPUBLICAN. AND BE CAUTIOUS ABOUT THE OTHER PARTIES ALSO.

No paper trail even after 2 general elections.
Congress doesn’t want a fair election.

It does seem that Diebold, cannot get the voting machines to work “correctly.”
Report thisHow in the hell are vote-flipping machines making into the County Clerks hands? Just ask the mostly Republican State Legislatures. They are the ones for whom the bell tolls, and yet they choose to steal the votes again?
Haven’t we had enough of the vote-flipping, vote-stealing companies anyway? Yet here we are again, with the same problem as before. Diebold, and other companies, giving the vote to Repugs, and their minions.
Are the American people tired enough of this type of shenanigans and vote stealing? I guess not.
For every person who votes, in this election, I would carefully look at the machines readout before I accepted the vote. If you do not, then the resulting vote for John McCain, will be on your head and the world will know that you have not paid due diligence to counting your vote accurately.
G-d, help America, if John McCain is elected through voter fraud the way the shrub was. For we will have President Palin as sure as shooting moose from a helicopter.

What is more Crimianl in a Democracy than tampering with Votes ( esp in The ‘Worlds Greatest Demcracy’ at that!)...NOTHING.
Report thisDiebold ahs been proven to have Major errors and inexplicable ‘glitches’ which seem to have some teltale consistencies…thus not ‘errors’ Nor ‘glitches’. It ahs been 8 yrs and still there has been no resolution to this problem. Granted the systems whould have been scraped and OUR tax money refunded. But they claim they problems have been solved only to find more problems develop (they just switch how the rig it). Not only that they do Not allow a Independent evaluation to exmain their programs. Frankly Corp ‘Secrets’ DO NOT OVERRIDE THE CITIZENS WHEN IT COMES TO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS!!
If Diebold ahs a problem with that (or any other producer of Voting machines) then they are GONE!
I KNOW those SCAMtrons are easily manipulated too, MI Primary Ballots were Scrambled then fed into a preprogrammed SCAMtron (also Diebold). I’d rather we go back to hand counted paper ballots anyway, so what if the results take a while..they’ve got 2 1/2 months before they must ‘report for duty’ anyway. K.I.S.S. Baby
