Kentucky ‘Glitch’ Switches Trump Votes to Kamala

'In full disclosure, after several minutes of attempting to recreate the scenario, it did occur. This was accomplished by hitting some area in between the boxes...'
(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) In a remarkable electoral coincidence in the state of Kentucky, a computer glitch switched voters’ Trump votes to Harris votes, Zero Hedge reported.
The incident occurred in Laurel County, Kentucky and was noticed earlier this week.
According to Laurel County residents, clicking the button to vote for Trump on occasion triggered a vote for Harris instead.
Laurel County Clerk Tony Brown admitted that the incident occurred in a lengthy Facebook post on Thursday.
Initially Brown denied the incident, but later stated that the incident “did occur,” even upon trying to test the ballot marking device for more “glitches” afterwards.
“The Attorney General’s office has been to the vote center to check the device that has been shown across social media today,” Brown wrote in the post, noting that an even slightly inaccurate button click on the screen would register a vote for Harris rather than Trump.
“In full disclosure, after several minutes of attempting to recreate the scenario, it did occur,” Brown continued. “This was accomplished by hitting some area in between the boxes.”
Many Facebook commenters pointed out the absurdity of the situation, noting that if there were video footage of people clicking the Harris box, but registering a vote for Trump, the corporate media would go wild.
As it is, the incident went largely unreported by major news sources, though some local news sources have picked up the story.
Louisville Public Media, for instance, reported that a spokesman for Republican Secretary of State Michael Adams called the incident “voter error.”
Ultimately, Brown tried to reassure voters that the Laurel County election is safe and secure, despite the disturbing warning signs to the contrary.
“I hate that this has occurred here in Laurel County,” he noted. “We strive to have accurate, secure and safe elections that we are proud to provide to our citizens.”

Interesting that these “glitches” NEVER switch Dem votes to the Republican.
Real coincidence that.

I looked up the word “glitch” in the dictionary. It said,
“Glitch”. An honest mistake or error that always leans in favor of the Democrat”.

Note....Press the large field with your finger. Do not try to make your selection by hitting that tiny check-box inside the name field box. My vote for Trump also flipped due to this. In my case it only did so when selecting down ballot candidates, then my Trump vote would magically unselect itself. The poll worker knew of the problem, but didn’t seem to want to address it.

Ground Hog Day
These incidents happen every election and always to Republicans. The same thing will happen in future elections. No one is ever held accountable. No resignations. No firings. No fines. No charges.

How come “a glitch” never works in the Republicans’ favor, only Democrats? Or is that just another word for “cheating”?

I voted today in Jacksonville fl and used a paper ballot. We had a choice, what is the argument against all paper ballots

"... on occasion triggered a vote for Harris instead."
It doesn't take a lot of "on occasions" to add up to a steal.

“The poll worker knew of the problem, but didn’t seem to want to address it.”
To be fair the average poll worker (at least around here) are older folks that probably don’t know anything about the machines other than how to turn them on and demonstrate how to feed in your tally card. But they should be prepared to take your statement/complaint and shuffle it up the responsibility ladder.
