Florida this past week. But for the fact that the county did an audit and eventually found that election results on from three machines had not been reported in the totals. It is still unknown what happened with these three machines. There is speculation that a card reader may not have worked properly. Another excuse is that the cards may never have been counted at all. The county is investigating. What seems to be incredible is that the when asked by the media early Friday about the discrepancy the Supervisor of Elections, Arthur Anderson, told them that he was not aware of a problem because he was out campaigning for re-election.

She ignores the fact that the voters were not properly reported&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Featured Articles &#8211; FL: Palm Beach County &#8211; Problems Reported in County Election System<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbs12.com\/news\/election_4708341___article.html\/run_trial.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.cbs12.com\/news\/election_4708341___article.html\/run_trial.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>FL: Palm Beach County &#8211; Critics rip elections supervisor after miscount in West Palm Beach race<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sun-sentinel.com\/news\/local\/palmbeach\/sfl-flpsnafu0628pnjun28,0,3240328.story\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.sun-sentinel.com\/news\/local\/palmbeach\/sfl-flpsnafu0628pnjun28,0,3240328.story<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>FL: Palm Beach County &#8211; Nearly 700 West Palm votes not tallied election night<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.palmbeachpost.com\/localnews\/content\/local_news\/epaper\/2008\/06\/27\/0627wpbelex.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.palmbeachpost.com\/localnews\/content\/local_news\/epaper\/2008\/06\/27\/0627wpbelex.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>NAtional: Machining the Vote: A brief history of lever voting machines<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opednews.com\/articles\/Machining-the-Vote--A-brie-by-Rady-Ananda-080628-791.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.opednews.com\/articles\/Machining-the-Vote&#8211;A-brie-by-Rady-Ananda-080628-791.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>FL: Florida&#8217;s 2008 Election Landscape Looking More Like 2000<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alternet.org\/democracy\/89760\/?ses=aa31c59ca344da065e31de7297131d6a\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.alternet.org\/democracy\/89760\/?ses=aa31c59ca344da065e31de7297131d6a<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>MS: Hosemann pushes voter ID for state<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gulflive.com\/news\/mississippipress\/index.ssf?\/base\/news\/1214648103207120.xml\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.gulflive.com\/news\/mississippipress\/index.ssf?\/base\/news\/1214648103207120.xml<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>OH: Cuyahoga County &#8211; Cuyahoga elections board picks costlier scanning system<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.cleveland.com\/pdextra\/2008\/06\/cuyahoga_elections_board_picks.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/blog.cleveland.com\/pdextra\/2008\/06\/cuyahoga_elections_board_picks.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>OH: Cuyahoga County &#8211; Voting machine swap means you&#8217;ll scan paper ballot<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.cleveland.com\/pdextra\/2008\/06\/voting_machine_swap_means_youl.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/blog.cleveland.com\/pdextra\/2008\/06\/voting_machine_swap_means_youl.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>OH: Cuyahoga County &#8211; Head of voting machine firm Hart InterCivic questions Cuyahoga County choice<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cleveland.com\/news\/plaindealer\/index.ssf?\/base\/cuyahoga\/1214642084125190.xml&#038;coll=2\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.cleveland.com\/news\/plaindealer\/index.ssf?\/base\/cuyahoga\/1214642084125190.xml&#038;coll=2<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>PA: Bucks County &#8211; Advocates hope voting machines ruling has domino effect<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phillyburbs.com\/pb-dyn\/news\/111-06282008-1555891.html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.phillyburbs.com\/pb-dyn\/news\/111-06282008-1555891.html<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>UT: Summit County &#8211; Board race still tight<br \/>\nSystem glitch keeps Brothers in the running, Jason Strykowski<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.parkrecord.com\/todaysheadlines\/ci_9721656\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.parkrecord.com\/todaysheadlines\/ci_9721656<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>**&#8221;Daily Voting News&#8221; is meant as a comprehensive listing of reports each day concerning issues related to election and voting news around the country regardless of quality or political slant.
