and another petition to spread the word - I attended the Verified Voting Lobby Days last year. If you can't make the trip (or even if you can) Please consider sending a post card (orange?) with a brief comment asking your congress folks to support the HR550.
I care about so many things- as many of US do now- impeachment, vote fraud, the war. All of these relate, but if we do not have honest/ fair/ verifiable elections, we have little chance of making much progress. (also of course realtes to worker's rights, health care, environment ETC.)
I also put a petition here with links to information
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/225975843?ltl=1142113685 , the target is the EAC, but also as a means to get links and information to more people- who I feel may be ready to consider the truth- because of increased awareness concerning all things related to the BU**SH** regime.
I just feel so overwhelmed that we are still fighting for our own democracy.
We have a right to Verifiable Elections / DEMOCRACY
Our recent national elections have been tainted and likely stolen by massive amounts of fraudulent activities.
http://vvlobbydays.blogspot.com We have a right to verifiable elections via an official paper record. Please read about congressional bill HR 550
http://www.rushholt.com/petition.html for more information, and

The out dated and unfair electoral college also works against our democracy and should be eliminated. We each have a right to OUR one equal vote per eligible citizen period.
"Thanks to the Electoral College system ...the big haul of California's electoral votes is crucial for Democrats to offset the multitude of small, sparsely populated states that reliably vote Republican....
California Secretary of State Bruce McPherson (decided) to override the objections of his own experts and certify the eminently hackable voting machines of the politically partisan firm, Diebold, for use throughout the state means, quite simply, that the fix is in for 2008."
