Machine failure in New York causes more distrust in the electoral system

Dozens of voting machines in New York state failed on Tuesday as control of both legislative chambers in the United States is at stake in the midterm elections, sparking accusations of voter fraud.

Local electoral authorities insisted that all ballots would be counted, but the simple fact of failures in the middle of the vote raises more doubts about the reliability of the electoral system, especially in states governed by the ultra-left.

President Donald J Trump, activists, voters and conservative congressmen have denounced the lack of credibility in the electoral system in Democratic regions, which now respond to an anti-American Wokist and socialist agenda.

The Electoral Board of westchester county He said he was aware of an issue preventing voting machines from accepting ballots at schools across the county.

The Board “wants to reassure each voter that their vote matters, their ballot is guaranteed and their vote will be counted,” leaving the ballots “deposited” in emergency bags, it said in a statement.

The “ghost of fraud” remains

However, this irregularity on Election Day raises more suspicions about the Democrats, in a state that represents the headquarters of the left along with California.

Parts of Westchester County are included in New York’s 17th District where Republican Mike Lawler is defending his House seat against Democrat Cait Conley.

Activists on online platforms claimed that Democrats were trying to “steal” the election. Among them are conservative activists Laura Loomer and Scott Pressler, and Katie Miller, who runs a podcast and is married to White House advisor Stephen Miller.

“Long-established emergency ballot procedures have been implemented, whereby completed ballots are secured under bipartisan control and will be counted,” the New York State Board of Elections said.

He added that the technical error – according to electoral system sources – was that the voting machines could not read or accept the ballots. They “rejected ballots they could not correctly recognize instead of tabulating them incorrectly,” he said.

It remains to be seen, if there is further investigation, that these sources tell the truth.
