NY23 UPDATE: Virus Found in Vote-Machine Software

By Robert Stacy McCain on 11.19.09 @ 3:50PM

After the earlier post about Conservative congressional candidate Doug Hoffman's accusations of "mischief" in the special-election vote count, a source in New York called my attention to a breaking story in the Gouverneur (N.Y.) Times:

GOUVERNEUR, NY - The computerized voting machines used by many voters in the 23rd district had a computer virus - tainting the results, not just from those machines known to have been infected, but casting doubt on the accuracy of counts retrieved from any of the machines.
Cathleen Rogers, the Democratic Elections Commissioner in Hamilton County stated that they discovered a problem with their voting machines the week prior to the election . . .

Read the whole thing. This story could get very interesting.

ACORN, the SEIU and Obama will do anything to win.

Forget the people, just let the machines vote.

But were the voting machines made in Texas?

China of course.

We'd better get ready for 2010; liberals are going to run a full-court press cheat-a-thon in order to win. It's the only way they can.

Has this been confirmed anywhere else? The Gouverneur Times looks awfully like a (slightly crackpot) opinion site pretending to appear as a newspaper...

Anyway, *if* it turns out to be true it is indeed interesting/scary.
