  • Did Romney Family Invest in Voting Machines To Increase Mitt’s Chance Of Winning?

    Oct, 21 2012 | Written by ATLien

    You know those electronic voting machines everyone is so fond of? Well apparently Mitt Romney’s family owns quite a bit of interest in the company that makes them!

    Tagg Romney, the 42 year old son of the republican presidential nominee made headlines last week after he “joking” threatened to beat the breaks off of President Barack Obama after the 2nd presidential debate.

    [WATCH: Who Ran It? Obama vs. Romney - 2nd Presidential Debate (FULL VIDEO)]

    Now Tagg is back front and center after the shocking allegations that he owns an interest in Hart Intercivic voting machines, the machines which will be used to calculate votes votes.

    That can’t be legal…

    Details…

    The buzz about the voting machines seems to be quite legit and many political sites are claiming that “mainstream” media is intentionally keeping the information under wraps.

    Through a closely held equity fund called Solamere, Mitt Romney and his wife, son and brother are major investors in an investment firm called H.I.G. Capital. H.I.G. in turn holds a majority share and three out of five board members in Hart Intercivic, a company that owns the notoriously faulty electronic voting machines that will count the ballots in swing state Ohio November 7. Hart machines will also be used elsewhere in the United States.

    In other words, a candidate for the presidency of the United States, and his brother, wife and son, have a straight-line financial interest in the voting machines that could decide this fall’s election.

    These machines cannot be monitored by the public. But they will help decide who “owns” the White House.

    Yeah… that can’t be good.

    Rewind to 2004, when Republican George Bush defeated the Democratic nominee John Kerry…

    Some politicos still call into question the 2004 election for strange calculations that Diebold voting machines, who had openly supported Bush, came up with that November.

    While most reports are that the machines are all located in Ohio, there are many others who believe that they are sprinkled all throughout the country.

    Could you be possibly casting your vote on an electronic voting machine that’s partly owned by the Romney Family? And the bigger question is… if you vote for Barack Obama on one of those machines, will it be accurately counted?

    Just a few things to think about during this shady election season…

      This is not even a question its FACT! Forbes.com op-ed board is running a story on it as well.. even the author is sitting back to wait if Forbes will put it in there major news section. He breaks down the relationships between the Romneys and H.I.C board members.

      Mitt, Tag and the entire family looks like devils. The wife was on a talk show trying to maintain herself. She still looked evil trying to defend that boy of her’s for wanting to beat up the President. Tagg couldn’t handle a one on one with the Prez.

        Agree, KoatedKandi. They all look shady. I think they’re all racist, and I feel they’ll try every underhanded book to steal this election (voter suppression wasn’t/isn’t as successful as they thought it would be).

        Paper ballots, people.

      It doesn’t suprise me that this is taking place these people are trying to win by any means necessary, in order to keep their money long and not have to pay any they will do some underhanded crap! If someone in the republican party can stand up in front of the rest of Congresss and the world and blurt out "LIAR" to the president without any ramifications. What makes you think that they give a damn what others think about them buying these machines as longas it is legal they could care less who knows! I also think that this maybe a ploy to discourage people to not vote because some may say "If the machines are rigged I might as well not go and vote!"

        You may very well be right. This is indeed a discouraging thought. And for those that think that way because of this…it was also true that if you marched with Martin and fought for his dream,you would probably be beaten,bitten by dogs,spat on,lose your jobs and/or probably killed. Had those even MORE hated souls not kept their eyes on the prize, your lives would be so devastatingly different today. Barack Obama most certainly would NOT be president. We MUST by any means necessary go FOWARD,not backwards. THIS is the most important election that directly effects us in our lifetimes. Many think that Mitt’s election would only be about money. Mitt is a mormon. Not the peaceful looking white and black clad bible toting fellows knocking on your doors. By the way..ever seen a Black one? Mitt will never reveal on camera who he is. Only hidden cameras and tapes can deliver his real persona. To me, he’s like Al Pacino in "The Devil’s Advocate".

          Now that’s accurate like a MF. That secret footage is why I say he’s a racist. A sexist, too. Would’nt be surprised if the mrs. took a blow or two to the face.

      Mainstream media doesn’t report the truth. It’s all about ratings for them. I’m wondering if THIS is the "bombshell" news Mitts maid is said to reveal today. Gloria Allred reported that explosive revelation would be exposed today and I’ve combed internet firsts like Mother Jones, Gawker, Salon and Huffington Post. Could Atlien have beaten those mega blogs out and "we read it here first"?? If so, THANKS. Now the question is…what will be done about it? I think with all other disenfranchised tactics already forced upon Ohio voters (republican registration firm hired to dispose of democratic voter registrations and charged PREVIOUSLY with same antics) this election is a proven farce. Just something that Americans especially middleclass and poor repubs won’t find humor in when their demise is realized. Yes, unfortunately YOU TOO are included in his 47%.

        Beat the dog shit out of him, he did. I’m into it with a friend’s friend on face book. My friend posted Romney’s looks, which others joined in on. Her friend said that since we couldn’t attack his policies, we were insulting his appearance. She accused us of "drinking the kool-aid." I sarcastically said orange was my favorite flavor, and when he actually committed to any of his policies I would attack it instead of that planet on his neck.

        Her: At least you admit to drinking the kool aid. Bottom line, I stick with a person’s policies and not insulting their appearance.
        Me: I’m an equal opportunity insulter, and I’m not drinking/buying into anything. I just like egging on uptight republicans. Plus, how can you talk about a Pres. as handsome as Obama? I’ll wait.
        Her: Haha. Since I’m white and I’m a rep. I’m uptight? Appearances still has nothing to do with the ability to run the country.
        Me: Funny you should mention the fact that you’re white. You might wanna ask yourself why that was even necessary.

        She’s gotten into it with two of us now. I’ll go back, see if she can justify why she felt the need to mention her race when I didn’t.

          Because that’s what our white repub freinds do. We didn’t deny Obama definitely lost first debate on lackluster appearance though he DID speak the truth. He won the second and slam dunked the third, and these repubs are crying about zingers. The zinger Obama REALLY should have went specific on when adressing China is "WHY ARE YOU STILL SENDING AMERICAN JOBS TO CHINA? SENSATA TECHNOLOGIES IN FREEPORT OF WHICH YOU OWN THROUGH BAIN CAPITAL? But Obama skewed his azz anyway.

      I would not out anything past this clan. The fact that he’s faked it hopefully til he don’t make it thus far with all the lies is quite crazy. It’s clearly not what Obama has or hasn’t done in most cases it’s pure hate.

      If Romney wins it will be the same way that Bush won, by cheating! All of these calls about people finding earlier voter cards in creeks, alleys etc. How could someone vote for a President who’s religion just a few years ago believed that black people could not enter into heaven when they die other than a racist? Look up Mormonism and Joseph Smith. If Romney wins if you don’t make 6 figures a year (including you trailer park trash racist whites) you are fucked.

        Thanks for reposting this article. I haven’t watched CNN since 8pm. That’s just how scared I am for the future of this country. As you stated and of course the ignorant won’t realize unless this demon wins,IF YOU DON’T MAKE 6 FIGURES AND KNOW HOW TO MAMAGE YOUR MONEY YOU ARE SERIOUSLY FUCKED!! I remember that Diebold voting debacle that gave Bush the win. The people that worked in the vote card plant were instructed by supervisors to run off cards of differing weights resulting in hanging chads in democratic counties. That was years ago and I think they may use some of those old machines in Fla. With technology today,there’s no way Tagg azz bought machines for Ohio unless….wait a minute…OH MY GOD!! WE WOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNN!!! WE WON! THANK YOU ALMIGHTY GOD!!!
