Matthew Damschroder, director of the Franklin County Board of Elections, says the cartridge was retested yesterday and there were no problems. He couldn't explain why the computer reader malfunctioned."

  1. there is other politics then USA voting by TakaIta · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Hey come on, the elections are over. It's time to focus on other things. Slashdot politics has been solely posting about USA elections for 5 days. It's getting boring. There's a lot more going on in the world.

    As a Democrat, can fellow liberals (or at least "anti-Bush" people) please stop saying things like this? You hurt more than you help.

    I'm not a Democrat, nor a Liberal, nor even an American. I just think it's amusing that people will cast their vote for a retarded chimp.

    I really couldn't care less about your Democrat party either. As far as I'm concerned, you're just as right wing as your Republican pals.
