turnout reports, voting problems, and last minute dirty tricks

[Ⓐnarchy in the ☭☭☭P!]

I've seen videos of the supposedly "rigged" voting machines on both sides. 99% of the time, it's because it's a touch screen, and the cursor is ever so slightly off from where your finger touches it. So, rather than trying press a different part of the screen, they will simply keep pressing the middle of their candidate's box going "baaaa rigged!" as some other thing gets selected.

The go to example I've seen is right here and it seems like he's trying different spots.

I mean, even if Hillary was having the election rigged, she wouldn't do it in so blatant a fashion, but it still looks pretty bad even if its unintentional

Urggh! Just get rid of those damn voting machines. Paper is more, secure and more efficient.

Why is it so hard for America to run efficient and secure elections? Every country in Europe can do it!

Seriously someone should start a Make American Voting Great Again campaign.

America is several times larger than any single European country. California alone is comparable in size to Poland. If European elections were of equal importance to American presidential elections, I guarantee it would be a messy process especially in places like Spain and Italy.

I'd contribute to that.  We really need some uniform and modernized election standards and practices.

Female turnout is apparently at a record high in New Hampshire.

Any word on if they're angry?

Do we know anything about the turnout in Philly?

Those angry NH women.

Are we going to be getting a special exit poll from you again, like in the primary?

I've only heard the same platitudes from everywhere else: "very high"

[Mike88]

Any news of the AA turnout in Detroit and North Carolina?

That's probably even more true in Colorado.

This is not either of those, but a while ago MSNBC was showing a heavily African American precinct in Cleveland, and it looked pretty dismal. They also noted that the EV turnout was down from 2012. No Obama, I guess. That sort of thing is why there has been some concern about states like Michigan.

"In the upset of the century, Colorado voters wrote-in "Doritos" in a landslide, throwing the election to the House of Representatives."

I've felt a lot better about MI over the past 48 hours. There was a substantial uptick in the amount of absentee ballots returned in the City of Detroit. I've only heard anecdotes about ED turnout, but newscasters and reporters are describing it as "strong" and "very robust."

I can give you one bit of hard news: My precinct in Ann Arbor is located on the central campus of the University of Michigan. In 2012, there were 761 ballots cast in this precinct. I checked with my friend who is a poll worker at this station and he said that election-day turnout has already eclipsed 600+ votes as of 2:00PM, so it's very likely we're going to break that at the very least.

What about NC? That's the one I'm really worried about.

He says Broward already exceeded 2012 turnout by 4700 votes.
Now, unless there has been a massive Republican migration into the county I guess that's good news.
