11. Holly smokes - and more tabulating problems in INdiana and CA
You can tell the election officials are clueless in these stories. Common element is that it happens when they are tabulating. Difference is what they attribute the problem to. In all these cases, it's led to a dramatic overvote.

Miami-Dade Florida - May 2004 - ES&S I-Votronics referenced from California where machines have trouble compiling data

IN - March 2004 - IVotronics - ES&S tried to sneak in uncertified software which could not properly tabulate the votes

But the real "strength of the machines seems to be their ability not to count votes (which they've admitted to) and to flip a vote from that candidate voted for to another candidate (E.g. Kerry to Bush).
