A senior adviser for John McCain’s campaign said in a conference call with reporters this afternoon that they have received a “troubling report” that some electronic voting machines are set up with a two-page ballot but on the first page, the only presidential candidate that appears is Barack Obama.
“Senator McCain is not on the first page, and it is causing problems for certain voters to make sure that they know all their options in this election cycle,” Ed O’Callaghan said.
They did not go into any further detail about where the report originated.
Complaints to the State Board of Elections about voter fraud are being investigated by the Virginia State Police, said spokeswoman Corinne Geller. The police will determine whether to initiate a criminal investigation.
“We’ve been responding to those complaints and allegations across the state,” she said.
Today, police have responded to some polling sites, and many incidents have been unsubstantiated or unfounded, she added.
More details were not immediately available.
