"The campaign of Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA), facing a difficult run-off
in Georgia against challenger Hank Johnson today, issued statements on her
website to indicate that voting irregularities have adversely affected her
election chances. [...]
At 8:14 AM, McKinney’s election blog stated:
"Less than one hour into the voting day, multiple problems with the
electronic voting machines have arisen. McKinney precinct watchers are reporting
machines down already, insecure machines, and at least one 4th Congressional
District precinct without McKinney's name on the ballot, but with her opponent's
name on it."
People working closely with challenger Hank Johnson's campaign haven't reported
similar problems. Nor have they confirmed or denied any of McKinney's claims.
"I haven't received any reports of any problems," said spokeswoman
Deb McGhee-Speights.
Earlier, another member of his election committee reported receiving a call
that "neither of the candidates names was on a ballot."
