    Stella Parton, sister to Dolly, is claiming her voting machines changed her vote from Democrat to Republican more than three times in Nashville. Triple check your vote on machines and make sure a poll worker knows and get a copy that it registered

      That’s happened before on touch screen voting machines. It happens by either intentionally or accidentally mis-calibrating the touch screen.

        I get that but it’s now being reported in multiple states and they are having to press multiple times to get it fixed. If even 2% of voters don’t notice this. It’s game over.

        Plus they just charged Virginia’s senator with corruption. 82 years old. This is going to be rigged

          Yeah, that’s how the miscalibration “works”.

          When you calibrate a touch screen, it will ask you to touch certain points on the screen.

          ❌

          Now, if you fail to touch the X, and instead touch somewhere off to the right, or underneath it, the screen will treat all subsequent touches in the wrong location.

          Super easy to foul a touch screen like that and the only way to fix it is re-run the calibration, which could be tricky if you need the touchscreen to enter calibration mode.
