Is the voting system rigged ?

Asked by Jaybee (220points) November 9th, 2016 from iPhone

I went to cast my vote yesterday afternoon. In the voting booth I checked my candidate. The computer kept on un-checking my choice and checking the other candidate. This happened four times before it stopped and stayed on my choice. Had I not been paying attention I would have not seen that the computer had deleted my choice and chose the other candidate. I brought this up to the person in charge at the polling booth. She insisted that I was double clicking or doing something wrong and that’s the way it worked. And she also insisted that there was nothing wrong with the system. Basically she dismissed my concern. Four times I clicked on my candidate and four times it clicked back to the opposite candidate. Is there anybody out there that experienced this glitch in the voting booth yesterday?
