Dear The Ohio fall presidential election was a tangled mess of voter suppression, vote fraud, vote tampering, and electronic voting equipment denying citizens their voices and votes. This stain on our democracy is all the more appalling since the Ohio election results will choose our president and vice president. To save our system of citizen rule, I ask you to stand with the House representatives on January 6th and sponsor or co-sponsor legislation demanding Ohio conduct a full, statewide manual revote for President and Vice President to be held on January 15th 2005. To preserve faith in our system, said revote must be by independently supervised by the Carter Center for Peace or a similar institution, and be cast on paper ballots to avoid re-using suspect and compromised electronic voting and vote counting equipment. Pursuant to a revote in Ohio, I request you stand in objection to the Ohio electoral vote when presented to the Congress for certification on January 6th, 2005. As a Texan, I require that fair and impartial elections be guaranteed and protected as the first duty of my elected representatives. If you do not stand up and act to preserve the integrity of the 2004 presidential election now, not only will you not enjoy my support and vote in the future, but I will work tirelessly to ensure you are not reelected. On the other hand, if you stand up for integrity and fairness in our election processes by denying the Ohio electoral vote, by voting in support of an Ohio revote, and by working to clean up our election process here in Texas, I will stand with you and actively support you in the future. With gravest seriousness, Your name, address, zip, and phone PLEASE, contact your senators (fax, phone, or email) and ask them to stand with the House and NOT certify the election. You can find your senators and email them through this site: http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/
