As we know, anything is fair in elections and war. There are rumors that Republicans are planning widespread electronic voting machine tampering so that the voting machines “help” the voter make the “right” choice. For people who are planning to vote for Obama, the following sample ballot scenarios may help you to be better prepared for the polling booths.

[+] Reading University researchers claim “I”, “we”, “two” and “three” are among the most ancient English words. Therefore, probably the most ancient English sentence is “I am tired of we two having sex, I want it to be three“. Hence we can determine that most ancient French phrase is Ménage à trois.

Did you involve in creating that machine?
I don’t quite think the McCain chap (or his camp for that matter) are smart enough to do this stuff. If you sign up for being their campaign manager, this should be your sure-shot chance at not only winning a jackpot but (who knows!) even a Senate ticket
Wow! Very smart!
lol. Another winner; you crack me up.
Hilarious..ROFL
You should check out the Indian electronic voting machines, you have to like sit on the buttons if you wanna make it work.
Brilliance, as always. I’ve been stalking your blog for a long time and this is the first time I’m leaving a comment
Hahaha.. saw one similar in Simpsons!!
That’s a scary scenario.
I so want Obama to win. May I bribe you?
Ha ha, that was funny!!
)
nice! i had fun selecting mccain over n over…its the obvious choice
ROFL, on teh other hand a newspaper declared Obama as the winner…
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/10/27/obama-wins-newspaper-declares/
This election is gathering so much steam that even the desi media is going gaga over it with 30min election specials!
he he he,, that was hilarious, good one.. You ought to take this proof to the Court of law to indict Mccain..
Awesome !!
Love your blog.
ROFL Stuff. Very cool, especially the chinese one. You could also add one more, Photographs of McCain and Obama. Once you click on Obama, he pulls out a flesh mask like in Mission impossible and becomes McCain. McCain removes the mask and becomes Sarah Palin
HAHAHAHA!
ROFL
But then I guess McCain supporters would not have these brains to tamper the machine so badly!
And don’t ever let this blog be read by an Indian Politician! They will sell anything to you, including our country for making our politicians win by asking you to tamper the already poor voting machines of India!
LMAO..
yeah yeah read teh news article that its actually happening
and it was West Viriginia
http://wvgazette.com/News/200810180251?page=1&build=cache
What’s all the noise about? You click on the name of the candidate, it tells you who you voted for, life goes on!
Alright, alright…before you accuse me of something apPALINg…
This is OUTRAGEOUS, nda! And well timed too
I sincerely hope desis with US passport have been registered to vote…and more importantly, exercise it.
Fingers crossed,
-g
ROFL!! What desperation!!
You should have used Palin as a bait too, as one of the ballots. People like me won’t even look for Obama’s name.
Considering Obama’s past history of stealing elections, incl vs. Alice Palmer and even now vs. Hillary Clinton in the primaries, I’m actually more terrified for McCain.
And considering how good the Democratic party seems to be with rigging caucuses this year, they should now have enough experience to rig a whole National General election, no?
Chevalier – are you for real or just a troll? You are terrified for McCain! Obama stealing elections in the primaries? He won fair and square.
That’s exactly why in the old world, we vote with a pencil and a paper!
Chevalier, your comment is not that funny. I guess I know what you will vote for…
haha niice twisted-dna! very, very funny
that better not be happening when I go into the polling booth on Tuesday… that’s all I’m gonna say.
Why is there no George Bush? How do they expect me to decide after giving me just 2 choices. This is ridiculous. n btw… good one
That was awesome ..
Enjoyed it thoroughly !!!
Loved it
ps- Hope Obama wins anyway.
If Sarah Palin loses, I want her to be the president (of India).
Brilliant ….
hhehee
yupp i strongly blv mcain will win
if bush could win twice..aything is possible
Srikanth:
Did you involve in creating that machine?
Lol. I may have created such systems inadvertently, but deliberately didn’t do it yet.
If Sarah Palin loses, I want her to be the president (of India).
Sorry she can’t do it. She will be contending in 2012. In the meanwhile she needs to produce a few more children and make sure her daughters don’t get any education or contraception so they can get pregnant. A busy hockey mom, you know.
Divya:
McCain chap (or his camp for that matter) are smart enough
Oh no no! Remember Bush campaign? It was one of the smartest campaigns! McCain campaign made mistakes (read Sarah Palin) but it’s not over until Obama makes the victory speech! (Oh, well, if we remember Gore scenario, it’s not over until he swears in)
If you sign up for being their campaign manager, this should be your sure-shot chance at not only winning a jackpot but (who knows!) even a Senate ticket
He he. Not a bad idea, especially because, Republican Senators are going to be a rare species after this election
Gnightgirl:
You are the only person, other than me, who uses the semicolon – that too at the appropriate place! 
lol. Another winner; you crack me up.
Thanks Lori
Jira:
Jira? Not bugzilla?
Hilarious..ROFL
Thank you
Chutney:
You should check out the Indian electronic voting machines, you have to like sit on the buttons if you wanna make it work
ROFL. Actually, given the power cuts, they are only good for sitting on
I’ve been stalking your blog
I stalk you on twitter. Twit-for-tat!
Abhinav:
saw one similar in Simpsons!!
I know! They always copy me even before I do it!
radhika:
May I bribe you?
Sure, by promising your vote to Obama and encouraging your CA friends to vote no on prop 8
Kokonad:
Thank you
La Vida Loca:
i had fun selecting mccain over n over…its the obvious choice
Yes, it’s the obvious choice when there is absolutely no other choice
maxdavinci:
newspaper declared Obama as the winner…
Yep, at the moment, they can rig the polls as much as they want… every poll points to Obama victory. Let’s hope it’s going to be that way!
This election is gathering so much steam that even the desi media is going gaga over it with 30min election specials!
Ya, I don’t understand that. on one hand, people and newspapers in India seem to hate USA. On the other hand they follow US news closely.
Sarath:
Thank you
You ought to take this proof to the Court of law to indict Mccain
(melodramatic tone) The court of people will deliver a crushing judgment on McCain.
BTW, do you realize that you are only one letter away from Sarah (Palin)?
Anamika:
Thank you
Dinesh:
I am actually worried that if McCain wins, he is going to pull the mask and show that he is in fact Bush!
Once you click on Obama, he pulls out a flesh mask
You are total techie eh
zanychild:
But then I guess McCain supporters would not have these brains to tamper the machine so badly
Well, not everybody in the camp are like Palin
And don’t ever let this blog be read by an Indian Politician!
Tampering in India won’t be this subtle. They will post two hefty guys at the polling stations and they will click the right choice for you
Whacky:
Ya, it is happening. That’s what gave me the idea for the post
gauri:
What’s all the noise about? You click on the name of the candidate, it tells you who you voted for, life goes on!
You almost nailed it except for the life goes on part. Life will suck, that’s all
something apPALINg…
OK, I hand over my worst-punster crown to you (See my reply to Chutney)
I sincerely hope desis with US passport have been registered to vote…and more importantly, exercise it.
How exactly would one exercise a passport? Bow-flex for passport?
sthitapragnya:
You should have used Palin as a bait too, as one of the ballots. People like me won’t even look for Obama’s name.
He he, I seriously thought about it! No no, I am not just taking your idea and running with it (I won’t do it so publicly you know). I thought of a scenario where once you chose obama, Sarah Palin starts playing the flute and at the bottom we ask to confirm the selection. User, obviously distracted, would miss it. Didn’t have time to do it. I am rusty with Flash and it was taking too long
Chevalier:
Considering Obama’s past history of stealing elections, incl vs. Alice Palmer and even now vs. Hillary Clinton in the primaries, I’m actually more terrified for McCain.
First of all, if you look at the current poll numbers, Obama doesn’t need to steal votes. He practically stole the election.
Secondly, my therapist tells me I am not emotionally ready to talk about Bush and Florida votes in 2000.
Thirdly, if you want to get dirty about our political preferences, be informed that I am ready to remind you Chevalier is the name of famous French cross-dresser
Gigi:
I don’t think chevalier is being serious
Zhu:
That’s exactly why in the old world, we vote with a pencil and a paper!
It would be nice to be able to vote electronically.. but we need to perfect the system first.
I guess I know what you will vote for
I don’t think he will vote. He will write a sarcastic rant about Obama on the ballot
bookworm:
Thank you miss
that better not be happening when I go into the polling booth on Tuesday
Permanent absentee ballot is the way to go
Manish Krishnan:
Why is there no George Bush?
Lol. You don’t need Bush. Voting for McCain is voting for Bush… don’t you watch SNL
soham:
Thank you for taking time to letting me know that.
Glad you enjoyed it
AgonyAunt:
Thanks
ps- Hope Obama wins anyway.
I think it’s pretty much decided!
phoenix, Vijay, Ani:
trauma queen:
if bush could win twice..aything is possible
Ya, that’s a scary thought. Interestingly Bush is the one who ruined it for Mccain
Ironically, I happened to read a story regarding voting in the book called Freakonomics yesterday. The author claims that your vote doesn’t count. Fore more, read this:
http://tinyurl.com/5cqbzl
In short: You are a tiny fraction of the entire population, your vote doesn’t really decide the candidate, so your vote doesn’t count. But you vote for many other reasons. This is the sad story of democracy.
OMG..you should have been campaigning for obama
PS ::voting for Mccain can get you a “sexy” VP ,so think again
Srikanth
The author claims that your vote doesn’t count.
Interesting theory. Do you know the story about King, Village and milk? A king ordered that every Saturday, everybody in a village must bring a cup of milk and pour it in a huge cauldron. At the end of the day, they found that the cauldron was filled with water. Because everybody thought, “everybody else is going to get milk. It doesn’t matter if I get water.”
Gireesh
voting for Mccain can get you a “sexy†VP
Typically when there is a sexy woman, the entire country wants to screw her. In Palin’s case, she is going to screw the entire country. So no thanks
Blogzilla maybe…Way better than Bugzilla!
And I hereby declare I do not patronize gojira or godzilla…
Digg this up!!

It’s a hint that I need to remove those ridiculous list of buttons from the bottom of each post and have a digg button up there somewhere 
Hey, you need to put a Digg icon on your posts.
Ahem, I do
Sudipta Chatterjee:
You have outdone yourself!!
Thank you, thank you. I hope I didn’t set the bar higher for myself. Now I need to do a couple of really bad posts to set the bar back
Where is the DIGG?
Nowhere in sight
phoenix:

paro:
By far, the best!
Thank you, disappearing woman.
trauma queen:
All theories and hypotheses, it’s less than 48 hours to find out now!!
u know mccain might win – if u take the bradley effect into account
But the bandwagon effect will counter that
focaljob:

Aparna:
Heights of joblessness
The lows of joblessness rather

cheers
Are you voting?
who is going to win?
The Republicans don’t have to steer the vote that far; they just have to keep it close. Then, if the Presidential election comes down to a single state where there has been some questionable voting practices, Republicans will contest it up to the Supreme Court, which will award the election to George Bush.
AwwwcK!
I hope the actual voting wasnt so bad.
Brilliant!! Thankfully this didnt happen!!
looks like afterall your falthu votting machine fouled !! great job TD
we should have known your idea behind this,,
Dont know if you have patented it.
Else, Election commission of India would copy it, and use it in India.
Ha ha..That was fun!!!
