Here is the follow email to the NYSBOE:
Good Afternoon,
ImageCast - Voting Machine
Inline image 1
I voted in NYS at the xxxxxx county: Town of xxxxxxxx,
Address: xxxxxxx Phone: xxxxxx
At this site at 6:45AM on Nevember 8th 2016, I was told I could not get a receipt for my vote unless I asked for a receipt first, before voting. I had already voted so I did not get a receipt.
I called my friend immediately. He asked before he voted, and was told he COULD NOT get a paper receipt of his vote, on the same machine. (ImageCast)
I was told a bold faced lied to in this very important matter, this is a federal crime on voting day.
I will be filing with a NYSBOE official complaint about in this matter. So please forward this to the proper official.
Thank you, xxxxxxxx

Follow on this. I called mt friend and he voted after me. He asked for a paper receipt before voting and was told he could not get one.
So basically NYS voting official lied straight to my face, looking right into my eyes. Unashamed.
God help us.
