Write-In Slides or Doors for columns 4 & 5 show signs of age after 75 years of use in Luzerne County. The first Automatic Voting Machines (AVM's) were delivered in 1930.
More and more machines are piled as the fleet of removal trucks delivered them to the scrap heap for their destruction.
November 4th, 2008. A machine set to cast my vote for Obama / Biden, just before I pulled the lever. Lower East Side, New York City.
Robert Peil, 88, smiles during the 2010 elections, Nov. 2, Liverpool, N.Y. Peil has been a poll worker for the past 10 years and believes in the voting process. “I’m hoping that the American people will have faith in their government, and that the government responds to the people’s interest for freedom,” Peil said.

The picture shows what seems to be an endless supply of Automatic Voting Machines at the warehouse. The pre-World War II Era machines were first used at the September General Primary of 1930.
Here, we again see the many rows of Automatic Voting Machines awaiting their final fate. This was to be the end of a 75-year run of diligent machine performance electing nearly all 20th century presidents from Franklin D. Roosevelt to George W. Bush.
Most people, I guess, took their photo after the levers were pulled. I decided to do it before. I know a lot of people think these machines are stupid and we're the only state that still uses them and they are, probably, not super efficient but I like them. They make me feel like a real voter and like my vote is safely recorded. Plus I love the heck out of pushing down those little levers.

Poll workers try to fix a malfunctioning ballot reader at 10:17a.m. on Election Day at Precinct 3901 in the Mission District of San Francisco, California. While reading a voter's ballot, the machine suddenly displayed the message "POLLS ARE CLOSED / NO MORE BALLOT READING," leaving poll workers uncertain what to do next. A line of 100 or more voters waited half an hour, and no progress was made. Finally, poll workers began directing voters to deposit their ballots into a slot on the back of the machine, where they were not mechanically counted.
