Is This the Dumbest “Rigged Voting Machine” Video Ever?
As they do every Election Day, right wing blogs are totally losing their shit over imaginary voter fraud and “rigged voting machines.” It’s a weird ritual they engage in every couple of years, without fail, and nothing ever comes of it because it’s all bullshit and they actually know it while they’re doing it.
And here’s one of the funniest and most ridiculous examples I’ve seen so far today, posted on Twitter earlier, showing an anonymous guy in a voting booth stabbing ineffectually at a voting machine with his index finger, pretending it’s refusing to let him vote for Donald Trump.

This is an amazingly stupid and obvious fraud, because if you actually look at what he’s doing you’ll notice he’s pressing everywhere but on the NUMBERED BUTTON that actually registers a vote, in the lower right corner of the section.
Also notice that the video starts with the red light for Hillary Clinton already selected — so this guy clearly pressed that button before turning on his cell phone camera to make this fraudulent video.
But don’t take my word for it. Here’s a (pretty silly) video made by the state government of Pennsylvania, clearly showing how the voting machines work, explaining that you have to press the numbered button and if you have a candidate already selected you have to turn that one off before you can choose a different one.
And guess who jumped all over this obviously fake story? If you guessed the Stupidest Man on the Internet, you win! VIDEO=> Pennsylvania Trump Voter Can’t Get Voting Machine to Accept His Vote.
