URGENT: Diebold Electronic Machines Malfunction, Vote for Other Candidate
Decatur) After one hour of voting, the McKinney campaign has received numerous calls that the voting machines are malfunctioning. Voters casting votes for McKinney are reportedly having their votes switched by the machines for Hank Johnson. This is not a new problem with Diebold machines. Lawyers for the campaign have been alerted and said that if this situation is not corrected, Cynthia McKinney for Congress will be forced to take additional measures.

3. Time to autopsy machines that have a documented history of this.
There is no reason whatsoever that each machine cannot print a receipt of the voter's intent. Diebold has been making ATM for years with integrated printers for transaction receipts...why is this any different? Because they are a wholly owned subsidiary of the Republican Party Corporation.
