in 2008, The Simpsons aired an episode where Homer is casting his vote for Barack Obama, but instead the machine kept choosing Mitt Romney. In 2012, this very same thing happened in the real election for Barack Obama and John McCain. The machine was taken out of the voting process.

Sometimes art imitates life imitating art. Four years ago, around Election Day 2008, The Simpsons did an episode in which Homer's vote for Barack Obama was magically switched to John McCain every time he tried to press the president's name on an electronic voting machine. The episode was likely a riff off of reports that year that voters faced problems with the touch screens of voting machines.
