he was the best one in the republican party
because of the results i think it was counted
it looked like they were doing correctly
when i voted for one candidate it cast a vot e  for a different candidate and i
i am very confident that it was counted right

i was confident that they did a good job
going through the process everything went smoothly and i placed my vote in a box
its all computerized and no paper to fill out

well we have new voting machine and they have a paper trial
because the priary turned out pretty much the way i knew would here
im just going to vote in the election not in the primaryy
well i dont have a reason not to beleive
i hope there is intellagent poeple there and the machines count corrcety
because of the intent of the poll workers
i voted electronically and saw paper record
because when we where done they put them right into the mechanie
because i live in illinois and he is our senetor
because i instered the paper ballot into the counting machien
I guess I could say that is was because my wife worked there
i am familiar with the eltronic system that they use
just because i think everything ran smoothly at out precient and i think we have
i followed the instructions and put it in tyhe scanner myself
they counted them as soon as we were finished voteing
I just do not think that our votes are counted
i had to believe that the machine was right.
Because things were run smoothly in the voting procedure
It just seemed to be very organized and efficient
I would just have to say that we live in a rural community and all of the prople
I do not vote a staight party ticket so I did not see areason to vote either rep
I do not group myself/ I vote for whoever I think is best
I just did not want to vote/ I have never voted in a primary
it was very easy to fill out then i put it in the machince and it was counted
once the found the ballots it counted alrite
because i used a paper ballot and i know it was accepted by the machine
its counted when it comes down to it if i did not vote it would not have mattere
it was upsetting to me about florida so i hope my vote was counted right
there is too much contreversy going on with all of the candidates leaves you won
the people seem to know what they were doing then i put it in the machine
just belief that it was run in the propper manner
i know all the people that were there and everything was done in order
the county i live in is republican and this is the first time demacrats won
i couldn''t make up my mind on canidates
i didn''t realize there was a zero on the ballot and i put one
well it''s an automatic machine, but with all i''ve heard about them i don''t kn
i just think they knew what they were doin down there
the fact that there is a very good record for having proper results
we''ve never had any problem in this area
the results are always recorded fairly and quickly
i moved from home for four months and moved back
i voted electroncally and it show my vote
i just trusted the people there to count it
i think because of the past election people take better care to count them
when i got done they put it in a machine and said your ready to go
the way things are run here and they are well organized and it is not computeriz
well isaw it go intop the ballot boix and i saw it counted
because they seemed they were interested in their job
they were paper ballots that were scanned i liked the methodology
experience with the voting... confidence
i judge the person running and pick the best one
we voting tabulator the machine that it goes into it automatically counts it
i like both candidates and i am not really sure yet so i did not want to vote fo
just because its a choice i decided to have
i have a hard time believing that they would change your vote
the process seems fine there were no complications
because i know the people who worked there... all was electronicly
accurate counting they will get every vote
i watched my ballot be ran through the automatic counting machinme
it was put into a machine... ill presume it was
i voted and stuck in the machine the way it went
the procedure the area in which i live the mechanism by which the vote was taken
i wanted to vote electronicly, but the machines were down, so i had to do it man
i took a paper ballot as opposed to an electronic ballot
i vote whichever way i feel at the point and time
believe that we got a pretty good prcessing place
i vote for whoever i feel is best for the office
i do not approve of primaries were you have to declare party politics
they had a ballot that did not have the local things on it it was a misprint
the county clerk i do not have any confidence in her
it went really smooth the apparatus that they used was very efficient
i have worked as an election judge for years and i know how the process works
first time i used the electronics and looked like it went fine
there is no crookedness in the smaller mid west towns
they scanned it in to the machine it seemed pretty easy
i am elderly and it is hard for me to get around
theres too much trouble out here with votes
because i voted for ron paul i think people are against ron paul
i dont vote party, i vote for the best candidate
i put it into the voting counting machine and they picked it up and moved it fro
because he drop out between my vote and the actule primary date
everything worked out find everything was the way it should have been
i do not recall seeing hillary clintons name on my ballot
i put it in the machine the number was 27 then i put mine in it was 28
there were no problems and i assumed it was counted
if you see the documentary and see how they fix the elections and the media dire
i guess they counted it, dont know why they wouldnt...
well you vote and you hope that they count them up right
well it was the man i voted for and he took the state so
i am quadraoeligic so my husband had to put in the information
i looked at the tab afterwards and before
I guess I trust the people running the polls
they didnt have name listed as registered voter in the book. i had to use paper
new york state not ohio and florda where they intentionally have people vote, no
they didnt have people that knew what they were doing the machines nether republ
machines ran in a way that i am occustumed to
not registered as a demomcrat or republican
it was a recannical machine it worked as it was designed to
the person regresting couldnt seem to underst the alphabet and my name
i wanted to vot democratic and they told me at the polls i was a registered repu
wanted to vot but registered republican and wanted to vote democratic
still using the regular old machines there clunky but reliable
i voted on republican and voted for a canidate of my choice and my country gets
theres never any troubles and never any complaints
i dont feel it was i dont feel they ever count, vote anyways
numbers of voters i know about how many people vote in my county and the numbers
living her 20 years i know all the people involved i''m involved in the processs
i did not go because i did not get any indenttion about it
I have never heard of any problems with voting in new york state/ they were prov
i think it was stupid thing that only democrats and reublican could vote.
i think we live in a small rural town in people know eachother so it was done ac
Because I have lived here long enough to just know and to trust everyone
im a primary care giver and could not leave
BEcause I just feel that the way that things were set up was was more like a bus
Because I listen to the debates wether it is republican or democrat
im register as independant no one was runing on the independant ticket
Just because I come from a small town of honest people
just through the proseces of counting votes
nothing specific i just have a postive outlook on it
Other poeple that I have spoken to voted the same way
i work at the polls and know how they work
I am hoping that my vote counted but I can not be sure abouit alot of things the
Thery were watchful and careful and the machines were working well
ive seen how the mechincale machines work
Because after you voted and you opened the curtain there was a light on the side
i did not know abot the election on feb 5
There were no problems the machine worked fine so I had no reason to believe tha
i trust the system that it will be counted as intended
Our community is run by good honest people
i had a question and there was no one to answer it
i assume it was done properly i have been voteing for many years
The machine worked/ They were very good about signing in
I think the fact that she is a very well known and intelligent woman/ I think sh
there was one old landy that did something to the machine so i dont know
i been voting at the same place for 30 years and never incountered a problem bef
i just dont understand this puliical thing anymore  its all about the money
it is just a small place and im pretty sure it got taken care of
everything ran very well/ we are using the old machines and I have never had a p
because it should be that is why i voted
i dont know it just must have been counted
I just trust the people that were taking the vote
There has never been to the best of my knowledge any problems in the district I
i could not dicide witch candidate to vote for
from past experience i have never had any problems before
good voting machines and living in a weathy area and not have crum bums around t
I do not know/ I just knew that it was counted/ I had no reason to question it
This is a small town and I know some of the poll workers
It was the first time New Yorkers could actually vote in the primary
i have lived in this community a long itme and they ahve a long  record of good
I do not know/ I have not thought about it
I do not know enough about politics to answer this
I hope the system works/ The democratic process is iin thprocess of working
I just lost track of time/ I was too busy
because i know the process and how the machines work
Because these people have been down here for years/ I am very confident that it
I do not know/ It was just run very straight forward/ I have never heard of any
I do not think that there has been many problems with absetee ballot collections
I worked with the machines in the past and I have heard nothing about machine tr
Just the process in which they do the voting/ the electoral college, that sort o
NOthing in particular/ I just have faith in the democratic party
I guess the machines worked/ I have not heard of any problems over there
Because I did not encounter any problems
I could not vote/ I am a registered independent
I just felt that Mccain is on top of things/ He seems to be a man that knows wha
i think everything went to the right polace I just do not know if it made that m
I am a registered republican but my views are not always republican
I think of myself as me/ I want to vote for what I think is right
Just the many years that I have been voting and the experience of the poll inspe
I have used the machines before and I think they are reliable
I was th fifth one that voted and it was a new machine
I had no intrest in the primaries/ I rarely vote in them
I have no basis for that/ I know there could be things wrong/ I guess I just ass
I guess I am a radical critic of the system right now
I am a poll worker and I knew the machine was working properly
i think all the votes here are counted as intended
last time they didn''t count all the votes and it made alot of people upset
it was a new machine they had to show me how to punch in the numbers
i would not have nay reason to think other wise
the nature of the machine it was one of those that you dialed not a touch screen
i do not like them choosing individual states and leaving others out
i guess oi just trust them the people at the voting place
because i want to choose who i vote for so i don not have to vote all repeblican
because i knowed those people aLL my life
it was published on a website this morning and i agreed with the numbers.
well ah the results of the election- huckabee got it in the state of tennesee
from what i''ve seen on television they have had problems in some areas
i guess i relied on the computer to be accurate
the =polls are run well and i have faithi in the system
well i can do is trust the machine that''s all
well there is no paper trail for what my vote was
i live in a different state and they have a machine that takes in the ballot and
it always had been i felt sure that it would again
um the computer system is very clear and you hit a button an d see the american
i''m to trustworthy -we are losing faith in the system as time goes by
would just hope it would i would hope i can ahve faith in them
uh they had very good structure at the polling place
well because of the people conducting it they were very confident in what they d
they need to be born again and accept god
i just dont know if all the votes actually get counted or not| you have no way o
well when i saw in the newspaper and the democratic votes casted there was unall
when i stuck the card in the card showed that that person had already voted but
hte election commitee put the delegates on the card
um i just have no doubt that it is i have no doubt in the machines
that is just the way the political field works
I have voted there before and have never had a problem
um well i guess i trusted the workers and the equipment
because the people who run the polls is vary honest
it just seemed like honestand good people
i''m in the army that is what i fight for
i donno i just feel like when you push the button it goes to where its supossed
because its electronically done and that the officials want want the elections t
i have no reasson to belive it wasnt counted
well for one thing he won in the state im living so he evedently got vote for hi

you have to turst some people and iv b een voteing there for years
it was very profesional there was no confusion at all
Every was run as it should have been/ I have no reason to believe that it was no
I just know the people at the precinct/ They do everything by the book
the voting machines i cast my vote and saw the machine took it
i did exactly what she said and everything worked just like she said it would
just figued the machine was honost the got the resaults from that
the goverment took my pay check so i dont trust them
it was just the ink the machine couldnt read it the first time
the demicartic is not listen to the little guy any more
that just what i expect thats the way it suppost to be
i dont know i just took it for granted that it would be counted
because they have never had passed truble in that area
i did not have a reason not to think it was not counted
i just wasnt intersted in voting in the primary
i just trust it i asume that it is counted
where you push the last button it vairvies your vote
just cause of the amount of people that where there and the way it was runed
i never had any reason to dubt that it wouldnt be
i just have alot of confidence in them and the machince
why wouldnt it i was there when the machine counted it
i guess it counted it but i have no way to know
nothing was reported saying they had issue with it
well the machine is suppost to record the vote
because i voted in the united states and thats my rigt and its protected
i put it in to the machine myself thats counts the votes and everything was done
theres enough people for both party''s and they keep each other accountable
well you have to have trust in something
i trust the people there its a good process its important for every american to
officence that the voting place was handled
i hope that it was cast i feel confident that it was
i did it correctly and vote has been cast
it was electronic machine hard to figuer out
the machines are just easiy to do the opposit of what you want
the was only one vote cast and that was for barack obama
i just thought its a machine so i figure it was counted
well it did not acure to me that it wouldnt be counted
