That seems pretty out of context. As I recall the coverage on this (read about it on MSNBC, I believe), he was saying that their machines would be the ones that would deliver votes for George Bush.

All that is saying is that when people vote for Bush (which they did), the votes would come through their machines.

While they shouldn't be expressing partisan views, the conspiratorial implications are stretched to be generous.

It's the same as Fed-Ex saying they'll be the ones to deliver the votes for Kerry because they'll be shipping the provisional ballots.

He's talking about the functionality of the machines, not programming them to vote for Bush.
