discussion of electronic election manipulation
Reality: it's Karl Rove's election fraud machine.

But then there's Clint Curtis. Clint Curtis is mounting a congressional bid in Florida against Tom Feeney. As many of you know, Curtis was the programmer hired by Feeney to write election-stealing software a few years back. Since then, much has happened, including the suspicious death of the Florida Inspector General Raymond Lemme looking into the matter and the total media clampdown of any serious discussion of electronic election manipulation in Florida and across the nation. Curtis, a former Republican, became so disgusted by what he saw that he became a whistleblower. The whole sordid tale is chronicled on www.bradblog.com .

Here's Curtis in his own words:

My name is Clint Curtis. I am considering running for the U.S. House of Representatives in Florida's 24th Congressional District. This great district is currently represented by one of the most corrupt politicians in history. Having personally attended closed-door meetings where Tom Feeney spoke candidly about his aspirations of corruption forces me to provide this district with an alternative to this man. I will need your help.

Now Curtis is considering a congressional run against the VERY well-funded Feeney. He promises to fight for fair elections and to expose electronic vote fraud. He is the ONLY candidate who will take it to the NeoCons on this issue. And he needs our help. He's got to raise $300K in the next month in order to take on Feeney. Note that being a man of integrity, if he does not run he plans to return all contributions.

Because of his willingness to take on election fraud, I believe Curtis may be the single most important candidate for the progressive community to promote. Please visit his web site and offer to help, donate even $5 if you can spare it, and help spread the word. It's time to TAKE BACK AMERICA--and Mr. Curtis may be own only chance of overcoming a rigged election system.

1. Such a match-up might garner a lot of national attention.
Is Clint prepared to be a good spokesman for himself, his story, and his ability to represent the people of the district?

If the answer is yes on all three fronts, it could be good. If not, he'd be doing himself and the things he believes in a disservice.

I wish him the best.

clint needs and deserves as much support as we can give him! Thanks for posting this!

I was just reading over at The Solar Bus and there is a short list of candidates running (including Clint!) who not only know about the hackable e-vote machines, but are not prepared to remain silent on the issue!

Here's the list:

Support these candidates:

Bob Fitrakis for Governor of Ohio
Pat LaMarch for Governor of Maine
Kevin Zeese for US Senator, Maryland
Dennis Morrisseau US Congress, Vermont
John Bonifaz Secretary of State, Mass
Clint Curtis US Congress, Florida

who will fight
election fraud


~~~~~~~~~

(The names are clickable links at The Solar Bus.)


Also, not on the list, but working her ass off in California to expose the truth of Diebold is Senator Debra Bowen who is running for Sec of State there!

Poop on the establishment Dems who prefer to remain silent while our country deteriorates and dies under the control of the darkness of the evil-doers in the WH.


WHO'S COUNTING?

5. Wait, if this guy wrote the software
Can't he just steal his own election? Yeah, yeah, I know it's immoral, but I say go for it if you can.

6. I plan to give. Even if he doesn't win, it publicizes the issue.
This is really all we can hope for since the votes are counted by the machines. But if Curtis tells it like it is, the media will be forced to cover it and give the DETAILS.
