"BREAKING: Voters in Tarrant County, Texas are reporting that the voting machines are flipping their votes from Trump to Kamala Harris," the Oct. 21 X post said.

We found similar viral claims on Facebook and Instagram.

No, Tarrant County, Texas, voting machines are not changing Donald Trump votes for Kamala Harris

If Your Time is short

Only one person out of more than 100,000 voters in Tarrant County has reported having a vote for former President Donald Trump changed to Vice President Kamala Harris when the ballot was printed.

Local election officials said the voting machines are not flipping candidates and suggested the voter made a mistake when selecting preferred candidates.

That ballot was destroyed and the voter was allowed to vote again.

See the sources for this fact-check

More than 2 million voters have already cast ballots in Texas during early voting but, viral social media posts claim voting machines in one county are flipping people’s votes.

"For anyone voting in Tarrant County please triple check your paper ballots when voting!" an Oct. 22 Facebook post said. "Voters are voting for one candidate and the ballot is changing the vote to another candidate." The post included an X post screenshot that made more pointed claims. 

"BREAKING: Voters in Tarrant County, Texas are reporting that the voting machines are flipping their votes from Trump to Kamala Harris," the Oct. 21 X post said.

The claim originated from a voter named James Carpenter in White Settlement, Tarrant County, Texas. Carpenter claims his choice of former President Donald Trump came out changed to Vice President Kamala Harris when a voting machine printed his ballot. He told reporters he raised concerns to poll workers who offered him the chance to spoil his ballot and vote again.

The viral posts purport that multiple people have reported the same issue with their ballots, but so far only Carpenter's account has been reported by local news and addressed by election officials. 

Clint Ludwig, the county’s elections administrator, said in a video statement published Oct. 22 that nearly 102,000 people had cast early voting ballots. Ludwig said his office did not believe the machine changed the voter’s selection and suggested that the voter had made a mistake.

"What we believe to have occurred is that the individual did make a selection on the machine and that selection was printed on their ballot," Ludwig, who did not mention Carpenter by name, said. "When they went to cast their ballot, they checked it and realized that was not the vote that they wanted … He was issued a new ballot and able to vote."

The voters are urging everyone else to check their printed ballots before submitting them.

"Reports were that people who selected Trump on the screen were seeing Harris on the printed ballot." - This is according to Tarrant GOP Chair

This stuff boils my blood. Why does Tarrant County utilize such an obviously vulnerable system? This also shows that it's not just Dominion machines that are corrupt. ALL voting machines are intrinsically evil. We need to go back to voting in person on election day, with human hands as the counting method. So far, we have seen reports of flips like this happening in Tennesee, Georgia, and now Texas. This sets a precedent for us to demand the publicizing of all the machine data and the proprietary software.

It's a good thing we're catching it before the election and NOT after. 🤔

It’s funny how in 2008, the US elected the first black president — who was a young, idealistic guy who appealed to the progressive ideas of the youth.

And Republicans responded by making sure there would never again be a candidate who was anything less than a proud bigot.

And the Democrats responded by making sure there would never again be another young, idealistic guy who appealed to the youth.

I want to preface by saying I hate political campaigns. That said, I'm supporting Dr. West because I truly believe he could be a chance to not have a crypt keeper genocidal supporter for president. That, and I like his platforms.

A bit ambitious, but I like what he's all about.

Support Dr. Cornel West if you'd like, No pressure.

Astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara vote in the elections from space.

From ABC News: The state Legislature in Texas -- the state that's home to the Johnson Space Center -- passed a law [in 1997] allowing voters to cast ballots from space, which they can do through ballots transmitted electronically up to the cosmos.

As a fan of democracy and a big fan of women, this is absolutely way cool.
