Entire inventory of electronic voting machines destroyed in fire

Here’s an interesting little tidbit from Taegan:

The Houston Chronicle reports the entire inventory of electronic voting machines in Harris County, TX were destroyed in a fire. Voters are now being asked “to cast their ballots early to help the county cope with a possible shortage of equipment on election day.”

What makes this most interesting is that Bill White (D), who is running a close race against Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R), is from Harris County.

Interesting…or suspect?

They should burn all electronic voting machines anyway. What’s so hard about putting a big X in black ink on a piece of paper, and then getting people to count them?

Oh that’s right, I nearly forgot. It’s not as easy to conduct election fraud that way.
