Ballot machine in US elections did not allow voting for Trump
Ahead of the US elections to be held on November 5, a voter wanted to select Donald Trump during early voting, but the voting machine did not allow it and automatically selected Kamala Harris instead. Presidential candidate Trump shared this situation on his social media account, stating that the voting machine in Laurel County, Kentucky, has been taken offline and will be investigated by the Attorney General. This issue, which prevented voters from selecting Trump, has drawn attention during the election process. Approximately 170 million voters are expected to cast their ballots across the country.

The eyes and ears of the world are on the United States (US) elections to be held on November 5. In the presidential election, Republican candidate Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris will face off.
With approximately 170 million registered voters across the US, voters are expected to form long lines at the polls on November 5. In some states, however, voters can cast their ballots before election day. It is estimated that more than 60 million voters in the country will take advantage of early voting.
The US is at the polls to elect its new president. The reason it is possible to be ‘at the polls’ before election day is the early voting right granted to voters in some states. Nearly 170 million voters across the country will elect the new president as of November 5.
"IT DID NOT ALLOW VOTERS TO SELECT TRUMP"
However, a problem occurred in this system. Presidential candidate Donald Trump showed the issue in the voting process in a post on his social media account. On the ballot machine, voters cannot vote for Donald Trump even if they want to.
Sharing those moments on his social media account, Trump used the following expressions:
A voting machine in Laurel County, Kentucky, is currently offline and awaiting investigation by the Attorney General. It refused to allow voters to select Donald Trump, instead automatically selecting Kamala Harris. What is your reaction to this?
