We have received numerous, credible reports of poll machine irregularity at voting precincts in Virginia’s Second Congressional District. This is very troubling. It is critical that every voter verifies the final summary page before pushing the “cast ballot” option.

Rigell is calling on the Virginia Beach Supervisor of Elections to switch to paper ballots at the 19 precincts where problems have been reported. So far, the elections supervisors office has not responded to calls from 13News Now.

On the WVEC13 Facebook page, voter Dustin Christy Vest wrote, “I was voting at Corporate Landing Middle School & a polling volunteer was on the machine next to me telling other workers that the machine was marking the x in the candidate below the one she was selecting.”

State Senator Jeff McWaters said in an email, “Specifically, some voting machines have incorrectly recorded votes for the opposite candidate than the voter selected. Specifically, votes cast for Scott Rigell have appeared as votes for Suzanne Patrick, his opponent, in the voter summary.”
