A state lawmaker in Maryland has asked the FBI to impound two voting machines used in the 2012 election to determine whether there was a malfunction or something nefarious going on.
“I just feel it is my duty to try to get to the bottom of this,” state Delegate Kathryn Afzali told WND today. “We’re not making any accusations. The Board of Elections are good people. They have checks and balances … but we want to make sure everything is fair.”
She said a number of people contacted her after the Nov. 6 election to report that they pressed a touch-screen button for GOP candidate Mitt Romney, but the vote registered for Barack Obama.
WND has reported a number of first-hand accounts of similar anomalies during the election. One touch-screen technician reported that voters in another state were getting error messages on their touch-screens when they tried to vote for Romney.
Also, suspiciously, a number of precincts reported a 100-percent vote for Obama, and some even reported beyond 100 percent.
“My request [to the FBI] is … I want them to take these machines. Let an FBI computer expert analyze them,” she said.
She said that among those who contacted her with concerns were two officials, including a state lawmaker who personally experienced a vote machine changing his vote three times to the party whose agenda he opposed.
The lawmaker told her that his computer background left him confident that the problem was beyond a technical glitch, and he insisted that the election judge take the machine out of service and lock it up.
Another concern was raised by Carroll County Commissioner Richard Rothschild. who said it’s critical that the machines be analyzed properly to determine what happened.
“We need to freeze them in their current state, not wipe out data,” he said.
He said his constituent reported the same scenario as has been reported: hitting the touch-screen button for Romney but finding that that it registered for Obama.
Rothschild said it’s a major problem that has to be addressed in order for Americans to continue trusting their election system.
He said the constituent noticed the vote changes on the summary screen.
“It showed Obama as being selected,” Rothschild told WND, even though his constituent reported voting for the GOP ticket.
“After talking with a few other people, this concern seems to be increasing,” Rothschild told WND. “There are just two possible answers. Either he made a mistake, or something caused that machine to switch the vote.”
He said given that his constituent has experience with computers, the contention that he didn’t know how to use the machine seems a stretch.
“I know how easy it would be to introduce a single spurious line of code,” Rothschild told WND, noting a programmer could easily instruct the machine to change the vote periodically, so a routine test wouldn’t reveal any problems.
He said he was told the county had no jurisdiction over the issue and that it would be up to the state, which is why he discussed the concerns with Afzali.
“It’s very scary,” Rothschild told WND. “It creates a sense of helplessness and hopelessness.”
That, in turn, he said, results in people feeling desperate about their failure to impact government.
“If American people feel they cannot trust their voting system, there’s the possibility of more desperate action,” he said. “There are a number of possibilities [for reaction] in nullifications, secession, including throwing off such governments.
WND previously reported in U.S. Rep. Allen West’s re-election fight in Florida, a surge of thousands of votes went to his opponent late in the evening.
“If we do not have integrity in our election process then we don’ t have the exceptionalism as a constitutional republic, we don’t have a rule of law,” West said.

For those of you still reading, let’s jump in without further ado—or adieu as it were—shall we?
Facts already in Place- •First and foremost, Obama lost in each and every US State where voter ID laws were in place (Georgia, Indiana, Kansas and Tennessee) •Massive Obama voter fraud occurred in multiple States—especially the “swing states” •In 59 Philadelphia precincts, Mitt Romney received no votes and Obama received 100% of the votes. This fact, alone, should have raised red flags and set off all manner of bells, whistles and sirens. But, the Republican Establishment (aka Marxist-lite) has remained silent •In Florida, St. Lucie County and other counties experienced unprecedented voter fraud, with St. Lucie reporting in at a141% turnout—which is impossible •In Ohio, Obama “won” a county by 108% of registered voters—another impossibility, of course, except with well-planned and implemented election fraud •The military vote was almost totally suppressed in the November elections •People were openly reported to have voted twice—or more •Republican poll watchers in multiple states were either turned away and not allowed to enter the precincts or thrown out once they had done so •Voters in multiple voting booths across the country reported their votes for Romney were automatically changed to Obama •Votes for Romney/Ryan were either changed to Obama/Biden by poll workers or thrown out entirely •Democrats bussed non-US citizen voters, many of whom could not speak English, from state to state to vote for Obama •The RNLA reported “election fraud occurred in Flushing when a Korean-American translator helping voters at PS 20 was caught directing them to vote for Democratic candidates. A volunteer poll watcher confirmed the incident” and in North Carolina
Good morning, HL...it's been a while, good to see you!
My comment: It's a total SHAME, that we have to live in so much corruption! To be honest (for me), makes it harder to be proud of our America, with the tarnish that the politicians are dumping on her (America)! The politicians are making a "dump" out of our country. JMO ~JOHN~
The FBI is going to "Probe" Obama??? Whaaaatttt??? WTH kinda parties are youall throwing down there in the White house??? And to think Clinton was impeached over a mere BJ??? Man O Man times have changed
I love this particular sentence of them all.I won't use Integrity and political figures in the same sentence together.LOL!!!!
“If we do not have integrity in our election process then we don’ t have the exceptionalism as a constitutional republic, we don’t have a rule of law,” West said.
Ohio requires ID to vote. It also "supposedly" elected Obuma. Of course Cleveland, OH was reported to have 100% votes for Obuma. Now I have family and friends in Cleveland and surrounding areas, none of which voted for him. So there is enough proof for me.
In other areas of the state... poll workers were registering voters ON election day and letting them vote a regular ballot... not the provisional that they should have had.
Many Ohio voters had to cast their ballots while looking at photos of Obuma hanging on the walls at the polling places... myself included... which is not legal either.
My son was registered to vote on his college campus... Obuma campaign workers kept knocking on our door and ringing our phone to get my son to work his campaign.....because he registered to vote for Obuma.... the problem was... my son had no choice on the registration but to sign as a Dem. He ultimately voted Republican.
Finally... I said "Obuma" through out this.... because that is how I feel... he is an O Bum... a... in my eyes.

Thank you Candio for sharing this information with us.
These crooks will do whatever it takes to put their man in the whitehouse. They can care less what we think or what we know. It's really quite sickening. I wish charges would be pressed and that Obummer will be IMPEACHED, especially will all the news out concerning Bengahzi... lies, lies, and more lies... Fast and Furrious... more lies and deception... so much more and he won re-election???!!!
Fraudulent and election should not be used in the same sentence together as they have been redundant words in America since at least 2000 (and IMO since at least 1980). Since the media "projects" the "winner" long before the majority of "votes" are "counted" it doesn't matter how you vote. Charlie Rose and cronies will have already decided for you long before your vote gets "counted" anyways.
As we slide toward a global socialist government, the only freedom we have is in our minds. Our opinions don't count if we hold to ideals that don't contribute to collectivism.
Tyranny of the majority is led by mouthpieces that erode our freedoms by misleading us that democracy is freedom.
“Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch."

No, No John. You and I will always be proud of our America.
Greedy politicians are making America look bad but that's only a handful of bad seed ... or you could say bad weed
People like you and me, and so many others, are loyal to the U.S. because we were born and raised here. We remember how life was when we went to grade school. We remember saluting the flag, singing the Star Spangled Banner and smiling when a man in a military uniform walked past us. We went to hometown parades, Friday night football games, Saturday night high school dances. The days of our youth are what branded our loyalty to Old Glory. Those are the things that make us proud to be American....not the liars, cheaters in Washington.
Don't give up my luv. We will see pride come out again in the hearts of the citizens of our beloved land...
