TOO RICH! VA GOP concerned about voting machine glitches! (Too MUCH paper!)

Lee E. Goodman, chief counsel for the Republican Party of Virginia, said the GOP is concerned about a number of glitches involving new touch-screen computer voting machines.

"There were many machine breakdowns reported yesterday and that means there was probably more paper utilized in the election yesterday than we're used to traditionally," Goodman said. Among the problems, he said, were isolated reports of power failures and calibration problems. He alleged no improprieties.


See? The problem was all the paper ballots that they couldn't steal!

1. I know where they can get tinfoil cheap.....
Remember how we used our little :tinfoilhat: guy when we complained about voter error or fraud?

Let's hope they get as far as we could, which was absolutely nowhere.....

3. Only GOP would call verifiable paper ballots a problem.

4. Yes. It's just like the problem in Iraq is the media.
And the problem with the federal deficit is not enough tax breaks for the rich.

And the problem with Medicare is not enough profits for Big Pharma at tax payer expense.

And the problem with our stagnant wages and benefits is not enough outsourcing.
