Poll question: POLL: What are you doing about GOP vote rigging & suppression for 2006?
After reading about Roberts advice to Jeb in 2000, I'm reminded how critical electronic voting and the various GOP vote suppression scams may be in 2006.

Despite Bush's collapse in the polls, his allies could miraculously survive, just as Bush himself did in 2004.

What are you doing about it?

1. The very important ones you missed.

Why is noone organizing (now!) to work damage control on the day of the election and beforehand. On a local level.

1) Monitoring voter registration rolls, informing people on how to stay on the rolls, registering more voters.

2) Preparing to monitor precinct reports on election day.

3) Preparing to support people who are standing in line with folding chairs, water, food, encouragement.

4) Preparing educational pamphlets that educate voters on how to avoid being a fraud victim.

5) Volunteering for offcial poll watching slots.

4. we saw what happened when we relied on Kerry to do it last time
He said he had it covered, then he folded like a house of cards.

I expect even less from Hillary.
