Do you really believe voting machines are "racists"? Some
people say they can be altered. I work in a voting precinct and
I don't see how they could be changed when there is a democrat
and republican there in the room at all times.

I didn't come up with a racist voting
machine. I heard them called that on
tv and newspapers.

The accusations of racism come from losers. literally.
In the 2000 election, one political party actually made comments that implied that certain racial minorities were abysmally stupid. An attorney made up butterfly ballots similar to those which were allegedly to complex for adult minorities, and SECOND GRAD KIDS had no trouble using them for their favorite Disney characters.
When are those minorities going to wake up and understand their favorite party thinks they are dumber than Second grade kids?
I took a Pol. Science course in the 80's in Iowa. Chicago was the place that often voted more people than existed in some precincts. The instructor taught us how to cheat on elections.
With machines, the only real way to cheat is to read the numbers wrong. he said at 2 am, it is easy to read the numbers off the machine backwards, and the opposition may be so groggy they miss the error.
For example. your candidate actually has 235 and the opponent has 294. You look at yours and announce 253, and announce your opponent has 249. If the observers are groggy it happens more often than you think would be possible they all write down 253/249, instead of 235/294.

Did you choose the wrong words for your question??
If not you are the prime example of a Racist pulling the race card.
Bring race into something because you have no reason or facts to support your point of view
Wrong words or are you just a racist dog?
Reword the question or just come out of the closet you racist

Nothing is foolproof.
But I do tend to agree. It is just a machine, the only way that it could be racist is if you think minorities are too dumb too figure out how to use it. In which case it's not the machine who's racist.

Machines can't be racist...Only the programmers that implemented
"Perceived" racial programs could be blamed.
Racism is in the eye of the beholder.

If people of any color are too moronic to use a voting machine,you probably shouldn't count their damn vote!
