Note the headline and tint of the "article" but look at the link title.
IIRC - wasn't this a topic over a year ago when there were very few documented cases of persons casting multiple votes in different states?
Heaven forbid that there should be any sort of accountability that reinforces 1 citizen, 1 vote.

FNC is now reporting that the Hogan team has received at least 50 complaints.
The state says the issues are "difficult to replicate"

Every idiot in the state is voting. I know there might actually be issues in some cases, but my bet is that a good 75% of issues can be blamed on user error. You'd be amazed how stupid some people can be.

Not only that, but the ones with the authority to hold the ones doing the ignoring accountable don't have the spine to do their jobs.

My wife and I early voted tonight in Urbana and her votes switched to the wrong candidate twice. She told the election judge and it happened again two more times when he did it for her. They finally got it to work on the fifth attempt. This has never happened to her before; she's used these machines many times. Naturally her votes were changing from Republican to Democratic candidates. Check your ballot carefully.

I repair machines that use touch screens and the occurance of switching selected choices does happen and the laminate panel degrades or comes apart. Normal for my machines and some touch panels in general. But should NOT happen on voting machines. They should be tested, tested, then tested more to be sure. While this could be a technical issue, on the scale of it something smells fishy. You know if it was switching to republican candidates the UN would be sending in poll observers or some BS like that.

IMO, the 'zones' are mis-defined (whether purposefully or not).
From the sound of it, the programming seems to be set to something like this (oversimplifying, I know):
D
R

Having had first hand experience while early voting yesterday I thought the same thing, but no. If the "zones" as you put it were mis-defined then in theory the machine should repeat the error. I attempted to make the machine repeat the mistake several times with no luck. Ruling out dead spots or panel delamination I was able to successfully select and deselect options in the same are of the panel on subsequent screens.

I should have clarified... I'm speaking more from a software perspective than hardware.
I don't code, but in English it would go something like this...
For Selection 1, touch area A is honkin' huge... touch area B is a pinhead
For Selection 2, touch area A is the same as touch area B

I would think the are linked together not separate, of course maybe someone with some expertise in this area can chime in?

I do absentee voting and I'm completely going off on a limb but it seems like a product that would use a resistive touchscreen and they're notorious for being terrible if they are cheaply made.

If this was intentional they'd swap the votes to D after you click submit. It'd be done on a randomized interval only for votes for a R candidate. You'd never know. No one would be stupid enough to change votes and make it show up on the GUI. It's actually more work, given the scenario that's happening you'd have to literally write code to tell the GUI to change what checkbox is selected. Not even an undergrad would do that. This is 100% a hardware issue.

It's a huge problem, but it's not a conspiracy. They need to overhaul the voting system and make it so that this doesn't happen. Given the relative cheapness of hardware today this is inexcusable. They're so scared of changing and screwing up an election that they're screwing up an election.
And a candidate would never post on Facebook gifts for voting would they...

I don't believe that. Why is it that votes always get switched to Democrat? This is not a "calibration" issue as some are claiming. Fraud, plain and simple. If the votes were being switched to Republican, I bet the el ration commission would give a shot then.

Not necessarily. If you don't pick up on the change on the review screen and hit submit, then you voted for the wrong person and it is a valid vote.
Are all of the complaints about the vote being selected for the D at the time the screen is pressed or are there instances of the vote changing at the review screen?
