Reply #12: Arguements which can be made to invalidate the vote [View All]

I think it is clear from the outrageously high percentage of undervotes that it was NOT voter choice to skip the race, and that for many reasons fault lies with the machines.

There are numerous eyewitness accounts testifying to the fact that the machine did not record voter intent to cast a vote for this race.

There are numerous eyewitness accounts testifying to the fact that confirmation of a non-vote could easily have been missed.

There are numerous accounts testifying to the fact that the race was not displayed prominently and could easily have been missed altogether. This was especially true amongst older voters not used to the machines and using them for the first time.
The fact that the undervote occurred most overwhelmingly in senior communites (one had a rate of 30%) is evidence that he machines are discriminatory towards older voters, and represent a form of disenfranchisment.
if I were a lawyer I would be puttng together this list to file a suit invalidating the vote based on... unequal protection.

The equal protection clause- remember when that arguement was made to invalidate a vote?
