I'm out of town on business (I advance voted on Friday) and my partner called to get the SOS website info. Seems when he went to vote at our precinct (Gravitt Trail Rd.) there was an issue with the machines that reset the voting cards. At least that's what he thinks he heard. When he went to turn back in the card he overheard something said about resetting the machines. I told him that I was pretty sure that when he clicked on "cast ballot" that his votes were (presumably) counted.
Does anyone think anything is up at this precinct? What exactly is happening with these cards after you vote and before they hand that card to the next voter? He's calling it in anyway just in case.

1. Tell him to report it and to call the DEM hotline number |

1-800-DEM-VOTE just to be on the safe side. It's been proven that they've stolen this state before. They know how to do it, so I don't put anything past this lying, thieving bunch.

I gave him the info. He did get in touch with someone at the number on the SOS website. Actually he had to leave a message and someone called him back. The lady he talked with said that they were aware of the situation and were checking it out. She told him that his vote was tabulated on the machine he used to vote and that the card machine with problems was the one used to reset the card for the next voter. She also mentioned that in GA there is a way to manually reset the cards but that using a computer was faster. I'm hoping all is well there.
Thanks again!
