Nevada Voters Say Reid's Name Checked for Them on Touch-Screen Ballots

Voters in one Nevada city are complaining that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's name was already checked when they went to cast their ballots in early voting Monday, according to Fox5Vegas.com.

Voters in Boulder City said they were trying to vote for Republican nominee Sharron Angle, but that Reid's name was checked when they got to the electronic voting machines.

"Something's not right," voter Joyce Ferrara told the network, saying several people reported the same problem. "One person that's a fluke. Two, that's strange. But several within a five-minute period of time -- that's wrong."

A Clark County voting official said highly sensitive touch-screens may be to blame and that fraud is not the issue.

Oh....it's not fraud?  Just stupidity in using screens that can't give an honest vote count?

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

It has also been reported that these machines were installed and maintained by SEIU.
