Will voting machines become a MSM issue once Repugs LOSE?
I'm just wondering if Republicans have lost any opportunity to complain about voting machine tampering ONCE THEY LOSE.

I'm predicting they'll complain about "voter fraud" as if illegal immigrants will be going into a government office and try to vote, and while I predict their "Art Bell" pundits will talk about the machines, I honestly don't know if they have "lost the right" to complain after all of these years of saying nothing if they lose this one as we're planning for them to.

As for our side, assuming we DO win, I think it's only right we correct this situation, rather than assume it works just because we happened to have won this time...

1. believe it or not . . . .

I think I saw the end of a piece on faux news last night on
the problems with diebold voting machines. I was just flipping
past (I never watch that crap) when it caught my attention.

but was was definitely a negative piece on diebold.

2. okay if voting machines are a problem
If voting machines are a problem then the republicans won't loose because they are the ones tampering with them and gaining advantages from them.

So NO voting machines won't be an issue, the repulicans will just find more ways to secure the vote (and by secure I don't mean create an honest voting process by preventing fraud on the machines).
