A Kentucky County Clerk was forced to issue a retraction just three hours after effectively denying a viral video where someone was unable to vote for Donald Trump.
Laurel County Clerk Tony Brown said on Thursday, Oct. 31 that there had been an “incident” with one of the electronic ballot marking devices. The incident in question came amid a voter’s video, where they tried to vote for Trump. Finger presses on the screen would either not select the Republican ticket, or default to Kamala Harris.
“We checked it and couldn’t make it recreate the incident reported,” Brown said in a since-deleted Facebook post. “We had no complaints prior to or after the complaint.”
Three hours later, Clark was forced to retract his initial statement.
“The Attorney General’s office has been to the vote center to check the device that has been shown across social media today. In full disclosure, after several minutes of attempting to recreate the scenario, it did occur,” Brown later said.
Many wondered why such incidents always seem to favor Democrats.
ever notice that "glitches" never seem to be in Trump's favor

While one user acknowledged that mistakes can happen, he did question as to why it had not been spotted earlier in the election cycle.
There are third world countries that can run elections better

It also raised doubts over election integrity.
Democrats lie, cheat, and steal. Given the vast divide in beliefs, we need to separate from them by any means necessary. If they will not leave to form their own country, we should force them out.
So first they Lied about it even happening until they got caught with the video and then suddenly, yeah it did happen and we had a problem with one of the devices.
Strange how it shifted to Harris.
Paper ballots, in-person voting, ID required…results by midnight. It’s not that hard.
Yep, all the machine’s fault certainly not the software. As other’s have commented, it’s always one way.
