Albuquerque, New Mexico....
Some early voters are having trouble with the new touch-screen voting machines...
Kim Griffith, an early voter, said that she went there to vote for John Kerry, but when she touched John Kerry's name, "a green check mark appeared before President Bush's name."
Other voters said the same thing, complaining how they had to "correct" their vote 5 or 6 times.
Election officials say the machines work well, and that the people are using the machines wrong. Bernalillo County Clerk Mary Herrera says that some of these voters could have "leaned [their] palm on the touch screen and it hit the wrong button."
November 3 is going to be very interesting.
