uploader's comments. he says not a calibration issue, perhaps we just don't have the same understanding of the meaning of calibration.
I had somewhat similar issues with my voting machine. When I went to select my choice under presidential candidates, it only took a gentle tap to select any of the others but I had to pound the section for my choice several times before it highlighted. Then at the end, when it summarized, the summary had the the wrong selection. I had to go back and do it again. No other part of the voting from the Congress choices to the amendment and bond yes/no questions had the same problem.
