Goodreads.com<\/a> attributes the quote \u201cThose who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything\u201d to Joseph Stalin<\/a>. Why am I quoting Stalin? There seems to be a slight problem in one of the ‘swing states<\/a>.’<\/p>\n

An article posted yesterday by the Fox News<\/a> outlet covering the Greensboro<\/a>, High Point<\/a>, Winston-Salem, North Carolina<\/a> area reported:<\/p>\n

On Monday, several voters<\/a> complained that their electronic ballot machine cast the wrong vote.\u00a0 All the complaints were made by people who voted at the Bur-Mil Park polling location.<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the voters, Sher Coromalis, says she cast her ballot for Governor Mitt Romney<\/a>, but every time she entered her vote the machine defaulted to President Obama<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI was so upset that this could happen,\u201d said Coromalis.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Guilford County<\/a> Board of Elections Director George Gilbert says the problem arises every election. It can be resolved after the machine is re-calibrated by poll workers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The election officials in charge are reporting that the machines have been fixed.<\/p>\n

I hate to be suspicious, but the fact that this is happening in a swing state totally unnerves me.<\/p>\n
