Slot Machine Vote Concern
The voting machines in Miami-Dade County have some concerned that
their vote was not counted in the last slot machine referendum. The
county has been having some issues concerning the number of votes that
are being counted with their new voting machines, and think that
perhaps there may be a problem with the tally. Some think it could
affect the results of the elections and of referendums such as the
slot machine one that was not approved.
In the latest mayor referendum, more than a thousand votes did not
count, and now the county is wondering what other votes have not been
counted. Although the number of votes in this last election would not
have been enough to change the results, some think that there may have
been even more not counted. Gambling opponents want to know how it
affected the slot machine vote.
Opponents say that the slot machines were voted down fair and square,
but some residents of Miami-Dade say that they want proof. The problem
is that there is no paper trail, so you have to go by what the machine
says, and that has many fairly upset. The slot machine supporters
think that the slot machines may have passed, but that they will never
know because of the voting machines.
