This woman in Florida and her family went to vote and the voting machine did the same thing that they’re doing in other states which is trying to pick a Republican when she picked the Democrat and it took her four tries to fix it. She reported the issue to the poll worker.

Democrats are winning back Latino voters who helped elect Trump in 2024, a new Times/Siena University poll shows.

DAILY TOP 10 | October 24, 2026
1. Trump voted early in Florida after years of trashing mail ballots. Apparently democracy works just fine when his own sticker is involved.
2. NEW: Musk admitted SpaceX throttled Ukraine's Starlink, then Kyiv reported service restored. One billionaire held a battlefield's Wi-Fi password. #Ukraine
3. New York's archdiocese is nearing an $800 million settlement with 1,300-plus clergy-abuse survivors. Decades of silence now have a price tag. #Accountability
4. NEW: US measles cases jumped 178 to 4,588 this year. A vaccine-preventable disease is enjoying a comeback nobody sane ordered.
#PublicHealth
5. Trump endorsed Netanyahu for Israel's election, but his own advisers reportedly prefer alternatives. Even the cheering section is checking the exits.#Israel
6. Kim Jong Un visited China to open a long-delayed trade bridge. Beijing and Pyongyang are building connections while Washington burns them. #Geopolitics
7. Doctors called Tennessee's botched lethal injection medical malpractice. The state tried to execute a woman and botched the basics of an IV. #DeathPenalty
8. Italians marched against war and living costs; clashes broke out in several cities. Europe's affordability crisis keeps finding the streets. #CostOfLiving
9. Colorado and Washington voters face proposed bans on trans girls in school sports. One Washington measure could require intimate medical checks. #CivilRights
10. Trump's new Alaska rule lets hunters lure bears with doughnuts and bacon. Apparently wildlife policy is now a drive-thru for trophy hunters. #Wildlife
