KDKA/AP) PITTSBURGH In one of the most closely-watched US Senate races in the nation, some controversy started brewing before the polls even closed tonight.

The race between the two-term Republican Senator Rick Santorum and Democratic Challenger Bob Casey has been a heated battle throughout the campaign – from the political mudslinging to their contentious debate.

Now KDKA has learned that the Republican State Committee has sent a letter to the Secretary of State asking that voting machines in 27 counties that have been accused of being malfunctioning – be impounded tonight

The issue has to do with reports that some of the electronic voting machines were not working properly.

3. Go ahead. Do it.

Fine with us, we'll go back to paper if you will.

[Lost-in-FL]

4. Aren't they working to their advantage?

Sure, now the voting machines are bad.:eyes:

[KittyWampus]

5. Sore Losers

[Gregorian]

6. It'll only give more votes to the Dem.

Unless they commit another crime and cheat.

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. That is exactly what I fear. Them fiddling with the machines

[blm]

16. I always expected they'd have some machines rigged to trace back to a Dem

campaign worker. A bunch of us here have believed it for some time now.

7. Kidding, right?

You have GOT to be kidding me.

8. Who's the Sore Loserman now?

[Patchuli]

9. That's funny

We didn't hear the GOP calling to impound the malfunctioning machines in 2004. F them!!!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

10. I have only one thing to say...Sore loser.

[Megahurtz]

11. Oh Fuck Off.

[uppityperson]

13. good, impound them so long as both parties get to guard them

it will either give more votes to the dems and/or show that these machines are not trustworthy. Oh yes, about time you whiners.

[New Earth]

14. over in the Election Reform forum....

not too long ago, it was suggested what if the Republicans purposely set the machines to give a dem the vote and then turn around and claim election fraud....not that i nec. believe this is the case, just thought i would throw that in there.

[Beaverhausen]

15. What a bunch of babies!

Whaa Whaa Whaa

[bleedingheart]

17. Santorectum...what a giant turd generator that stupid mother fucker is

he just can't deal with the fact that his golden boy status has died....he is now a Virginian citizen...

[Webster Green]

18. All the polls had ricky losing

Get over it, ricky!

[joeunderdog]

19. How will they know they've been hacked if it's all proprietary?

I figured something like this would happen. Let the Dem's win by popular vote, hack it to make it even more of a victory and then accuse the Dems of being the hackers.

Again, how can they prove "Hacking" if the technology is a secret, and how could that ever play out in court?

[mom cat]

20. Dems should have been doing that a long time ago!

[Starlight]

21. The machines malfunctioned & didn't switch votes to GOP like they programmed them?

[BelgianMadCow]

22. I'm hoping dem leadership is impounding some as well then

what with the different reports of voteflippin touchscreens.

But i also fear some machines rigged to dems just to compromise.

[Rainscents]

23. Hey Ricky boy...

We been trying to tell you to get ride of the fucking machines!

[Matariki]

24. "we paid GOOD MONEY to have these machines rigged" say the PA republicans

LOL

[magellan]

25. This is what the Dems should have done in '04

But it's all good now as well. Show the damn machines to be everything we know them to be in these counties and it casts doubt on them across the nation. Even if Santorum somehow pulls a win out of it the GOP still lose because they won't have machines to rig anymore. Into the ocean with them all, baby, back to hand-counting paper ballots!!
