http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_U.S._Election_controversies_and_irregularities#Evidence_of_electronic_voting_biassome of the compiled evidence:
(1) An analysis of Florida counties with 80,000 - 500,000 registered voters concluded (with a few caveats of a usual kind) that machine type (E-Touch vs Op-Scan) was a "significant predictor" of vote at the p < 0.001 level (less than one chance in a thousand of this degree of anomaly happening by chance) <5> (
http://ustogether.org/election04/Little_Analysis.html) Source data and calculations <6> (
http://ustogether.org/Florida_Election.htm).
(2) One website discusses Gahanna, Franklin Co. Ohio. The vote reported by the county in Gahanna precinct 1-B was 4,258 Bush, 260 Kerry, and the total votes cast in Gahanna overall were 20,736. However:
* Gahanna has some 20,000 people elegible to vote and the reported turnout was around 70%. On a casual reckoning approximately 14,000 people voted, and yet nearly 21,000 votes were reported by voting machines.
* 4,258 Republican votes were electronically reported for Bush in Gahanna 1-B. But there were only 638 votes cast in the precinct. Furthermore the 3,893 extra individuals who are said to have queued to vote for Bush, and were therefore presumably Republican, did not appear to vote on any other matter bar the Presidency. (These other matters included the Senate race, County Commissioner, several County and State officials, and the infamous Gay Unions vote, issues of great importance in the election.)

Manipulation of exit poll data
(disputed — see talk page)
The following tables compare final exit poll data with penultimate exit poll data, note the large swing of support towards Bush, with Kerry losing votes which is mathematically impossible if votes are only being added. It was claimed that initial exit poll data was "inaccurate" but no details and little comment on this discrepancy were provided.
CNN screenshot #1:
12.21 am, 1963 respondents so far
Total vote: Male 47% , Female 53% of which:
Male - Bush 47% x 49% x 1963 452
Male - Kerry 47% x 51% x 1963 471
Female - Bush 53% x 47% x 1963 489
Female - Kerry 53% x 53% x 1963 551
TOTAL - Bush 941
TOTAL - Kerry 1022
(rounding: estimates of voters in each category accurate within +/- 10)
CNN screenshot #2:
1.41 am, 2020 respondents so far (57 more than above)
Total vote: Male 47% , Female 53% of which:
Male - Bush 47% x 52% x 2020 499
Male - Kerry 47% x 47% x 2020 451
Female - Bush 53% x 50% x 2020 535
Female - Kerry 53% x 50% x 2020 535
TOTAL - Bush 1034
TOTAL - Kerry 986
(rounding: estimates of voters in each category accurate within +/- 10)
The addition of an extra 57 voters at this station was therefore reported as +93 votes for Bush by AP and CNN at least, and voters monitoring the exit polls were told authoritatively that Bush had now taken a lead from Kerry.
