Does the machine flip the user's straight-ticket UNIFORMLY across the possible parties? Or does it seem to favor one party over all the others?
If this is really user error, the simplest solution for this is for half the machines to place the republican straight ticket first on the wheel, and on the other half, to place the democrat straight ticket first.
But somehow I think that level of fair-mindedness will be unlikely. (BTW, I lived in TX for a bit, so my jaundice was fairly earned.)
