A former Republican congressional candidate was charged with stealing ballots during a test of a voting system in Madison County, Indiana, state police said on Tuesday.
During the test on Oct. 3, which involved four voting machines and 136 candidate ballots marked for testing, officials discovered that two ballots were missing, according to the Indiana State Police.
Surveillance video showed Larry Savage, 51, a precinct committeeman, folding and placing both ballots in his pocket after receiving instructions about the validity of the test ballots, the police said.
A search warrant was issued and Savage's residence was subsequently searched, police said, adding that officers found the missing ballots in his vehicle.
"it's broken and therefore obviously can't be used to decide the president"
"And only the president. All the downballot seats they won from votes cast on the same process/machines? Those are legit. Only the presidential votes can't be trusted"
