"Calibration Error" on touch screens makes you vote for Democrat candidates

I know a little bit about touch screens, and how you need to calibrate them.  However... it takes a massive calibration error for this to happen:

“I tried to cast a vote for myself and instead it cast the vote for my opponent,” Moynihan said. “You could imagine my surprise as the same thing happened with a number of races when I tried to vote for a Republican and the machine registered a vote for a Democrat.”

The people who program the machines purposefully put the two a mile or so apart, so that calibration errors of the touch screen won't do this.  So in order for this to happen, you'd either need the most incompetent person in the world doing the calibrating...
...or you'd need a completely crooked person.

Since this is Illinois, I'm going for the second category.

More voter fraud that is definitely not happening...

From the Arizona Daily Independent:

LaFaro recounts that between 12:54 p.m. and 1:04 p.m., he heard a loud thud and turned to see what was going on. “A person wearing a Citizens for a Better Arizona (CBA) t-shirt dropped a large box of hundreds of early ballots on the table and started stuffing the ballot box as I watched in amazement.”

Go read the entire article.  Its kinda amazing.  Or just watch this video, provided by the Daily Independent:

Like shit, Voter Fraud Happens

Thank you, Daytona Beach News Journal, for pointing this out.
The best part of this story?

Yet it was the Republican Party of Florida — a proponent of strong anti-fraud laws — that recently reported one of their own voter-registration contractors may have run afoul of state law. According to The Associated Press, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement charged two ex-employees of a GOP-hired firm with third-degree felonies. 

The employees were just a few out of hundreds at Strategic Allied Consulting, a group hired by Republicans to do voter registration drives in Florida and other states. The Florida investigation began when the state GOP fired the company and filed an election fraud complaint with state officials, according to AP. More than 25 voter-registration forms appear to be fraudulent, police said.

Kudos to the GOP for turning them in.
You made me proud.
