Voter Fruad, Anyone?
This dude, Randy Wooten, was running for mayor of Waldenburg, Ark. His town only has 80 people in it. He didn't win. I guess he wasn't surprised with that. What he was surprised at was the fact that the vote counters said he had received zero votes. Zero.
He thought that was strange because he had voted for himself. As had his wife presumably. He says he also spoke with 9 or 10 people who had voted for him. Given that the other two guys had only received 18 votes according to the vote counters, my man Randy may have gotten shafted.
I can almost guarantee that this is going to be blamed on the fact that they were using electronic voting machines rather than paper ballots. Also that's funny because now we can make jokes about how people from Arkansas can't use electronic devices.

It's amazing how unneedlessly complicated the process of voting seems to have become in this country.
