A video surfaced on social media of a voter claiming to be from Kentucky saying that voting machines are not allowing people to select the option to vote for Donald Trump. In the video, the person can be seen recording the process of selecting a candidate in the voting machine. However, the person is seen unable to select Trump, while the option to select Kamala Harris seemed to be working fine. Times Now Digital cannot verify the authenticity of the video: Here's the video:
As per reports, the incident happened in Laurel County, Kentucky. Tony Brown, a clerk from Laurel County, acknowledged that the incident was reported, but upon checking, they could not recreate the incident. "We've had an incident today with someone reporting one of the ballot marking devices malfunctioning," Brown wrote in a social media post. "We checked it and couldn't make it recreate the incident reported. The machine has been taken out of service and are waiting for the Attorney General's Office representative to arrive. "We had no complaints prior to or after the complaint. We have left the machine in full view and are awaiting further directions."Meanwhile, Kentucky saw a massive wave of voters coming out and voting early, ahead of the November 5 election day; Governor Andy Beshear, a Democrat, as well as Secretary of State, Michel Adams, both voted early on Thursday. The duo later appeared on the Beshear's Team Kentucky and jointly spoke about early voting. “We have had occasional and sporadic instances of lines this morning when the polls opened,” Adams said. “We had the same thing in 2020 on the first day of voting. That’s not unusual. Those lines have calmed down. They’re moving very, very quickly. You’re going to have a longer line and a longer voting experience if you wait until Tuesday.” Many people also shared selfies after completing the voting process. Meanwhile, there were also photos of people standing in long lines waiting for the polling centers to open.BREAKING - Kentucky voting machines are REFUSING to let voters select Donald Trump’s name, automatically selecting Kamala Harris instead.
