Ohio Poll Worker's Account of Vote-Switching Machine

On Election Day, November 6, 2012, I was a Precinct Election Official (poll worker) and Presiding Judge in Wayne County, Ohio. I personally witnessed an electronic voting machine switching votes from Republican candidates to Democrats. Early Friday morning I sent the following letter to Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted. I sent an identical letter to Nancy Hamilton, Director of the Wayne County Board of Elections. While I don't have any expectations that it will change the outcomes of any of the elections in Ohio, I am very concerned about the reliability of the voting machines and want to see a thorough investigation into the matter. For the record, I'm not speculating about the cause of the vote switching, only testifying to the fact that I saw it happen. And I'm urging the Secretary of State to launch an immediate, thorough investigation.
