I suspect now, after seeing this, that this IS happening my area as well.
I had heard it on the radio, a few callers called in and said it was.

"Ohio is an election battleground state with perennial problems at the polls. So what have election officials in some precincts of the state been doing to keep their voting machines safe from tampering?

Taking the machines home with them and stashing them in their garages in the days before a big election."

Can a voting machine spend the night?
