And you know what I find interesting?
The machines programs and compilers? were screwed with in 2000. That has been proven by several University investigations.
The machines programs and compilers? were screwed with in 2004. That also was proven by several University investigations.

I figured ten minutes after Obama was inaugurated, he would have made a task force of the Dept of Justice, The FBI and the FEC to thoroughly investigate and do whatever needed to be done to correct the touch screen voting machines problems. AND criminally prosecute those responsible for the reprograming so they would flip votes....

I watched and I did not see him do anything about the voting machines. I think Obama is one of the best presidents ever. He came in a little naive, but did a spectacular job overall. But, as far as I can tell, he did nothing about the voting machines, so here we are, once again. I believe the reason that the rigging of the machines in Obama's elections was tripped up, was that they rigged it for a 10-12% flipping, and he had such a landslide of voters, that they hadn't rigged it for that large a number of votes for Obama.
