Boxer: Urge your Members of Congress to support my "Confidence in Voting

[rumpel]

Act!

Brad posted his drive towards support as the initiator of this bill this past week. We must all act on this. I thought, it's worth posting it again.
She is my Senator, so I can not do much urging.

Counting every vote this November
The American people deserve an elections system that is beyond reproach -- a system where every vote counts and every vote is counted. That's why I've introduced new legislation, co-sponsored by Senator Chris Dodd (D-CT), to address this problem -- and I hope you'll urge your Members of Congress to support it.

My "Confidence in Voting Act" is simple. It urges local jurisdictions to make paper ballots available at every polling place, so any voter who wants one can use one, and so there is a back-up in case electronic voting machines fail. What's more, my legislation defrays the cost by reimbursing local jurisdictions up to $.75 for each of these contingency paper ballots produced.

This is a win-win for local governments and for individual voters. The "Confidence in Voting Act" will make it easier for states to do the right thing in this November's election -- and it will make the American people more confident about the outcome. Please forward an email to your Members of Congress now -- urge them to support my "Confidence in Voting Act" before Congress adjourns this week!

but do you think this should have been worked on after the 2004 election, instead of waiting 47 days before the mid term election, how incompetent.
