deal with vote fraud. 

HELP AMERICA AUDIT: 5 Things You Can Do Right Now to Reclaim Democracy

You're our greatest hope. If you choose to accept it, your job, on the
Black Box Voting Cleanup Crew, is to spread the word in order to build a
fast-growing grass roots movement -- a voting integrity project so
powerful that it cannot be mowed down.

1. BE THE MEDIA -- See below for specifics. TV networks are on lockdown,
are not able to cover real news on vote fraud. The only "OK" news is
stuff about vote suppression and a little bit on touch screens --
nothing on the bizarre and impossible math that's showing up, or the
central tabulator meltdowns, or the crazy numbers from optical scan
counties. Network TV: The subject is officially taboo. I have this from
two separate producers, who have also been told not to talk about it. 

2. CRUNCH THE NUMBERS: Discrepancies please, and hurry. E-mail them to
tips at blackboxvoting.org. Pass the word. Need source documents, too.
ASAP. Follow your nose, or join the Black Box Scavenger Hunt: Pick a
county with optical scan machines or touch screens. Look at small
counties, as we are seeing many discrepancies in those. Look in any
state. Get the official number of registered voters, Dem and Republican.
Get the number of votes cast on Nov. 2, Republican and Dem. Make a grid
like this, filling in the right numbers:

         # reg. voters          %              # votes cast %
Rep          100                 33%                150  50%
Dem         200                 67%                150 50%
Totl           300                100%                300 100%

We can find out a lot from this procedure, very hard data, that will
make a real difference. As soon as you have finished a county, e-mail it
to us. Do as many counties as you can.

3. HAVE A HOUSE PARTY: Show the film "Votergate" (the real one, which
you can download for free at www.Votergate.tv.) Organize "Be the media"
actions and set up investigative teams to help dig up information like
you have in #2. Timeline is NOW, to get action before seating the
electoral college. 

4. HELP CONNECT THE WIRES: Hook Black Box Voting (.ORG) up with
powerhitters you know, people who can make things happen.

5. DONATE to any of 3 organizations: Black Box Voting (.ORG), the
consumer protection group for elections; or the new recount fund
(information upcoming),  or send contribution to Votergate.tv (The REAL
Votergate film, by Russell Michaels, Robert Carrillo Cohen, and Simon
Ardizzone. There is another by someone else, make sure you get the right
one.) The real VOTERGATE is the most powerful investigative film on this
topic, and consequently it has been attacked and blocked repeatedly.
They deserve your support.

"HOW TO BE THE MEDIA"

Don't expect to see vote burglary on TV. To get the message out fast,
you're going to have to become the underground railroad. Do it now. Take
pictures of each other doing it. Have house parties to show others how
to do it. Here's how to "be the media."

BE YOUR OWN REPORTER: We will send you new information as we get it. We
need your e-mail to get you on the list, so if a friend sent this to
you, please shoot an email to crew at blackboxvoting.org to sign up. 

Spread the information we send you to every blog, listserv, forum you
know and throughout your personal network. Talk about it at work and to
people you meet everywhere, lots, quickly, all the time.

SELF SERVE SOUND BITES: Frequent, very short messages to immediately
increase public awareness. Assume you won't see it on TV. 
Put vote fraud related messages on:
- Yard signs
- Car windows
- Write them on duct tape and wear them
- Print REMOVABLE stickers and stick them on things:
- Bathroom door at the gas station. 
- On telephone poles in the dead of night
- At bus stops
- On the back of bus seats
- Stick them into your junk mail and send it back via return mail
- Slip them into menus at restaurants
- Leave them in books at the bookstore
- Share new self serve sound bite ideas with us and we'll send them out
with new messages.

ELECTION "TRUTH TOURETTES". Please excuse the political incorrectness,
as it is not meant to be hurtful. It is for a good purpose. This the
antidote to "watch what you say." It is a good icebreaker at a party.
Have your guests make up truths, like those below, and mix them into the
conversation at surprise times throughout the party. Unexpectedly and
urgently blurt them out:

Recount!  
Electile Dysfunction!
Gotta audit-Gotta audit-Gotta audit
Florida!
--mathmatically impossible!--
Count all the votes! Count all the votes! Count all the votes!
Votefraud.
Paperballots! Handcounts! 
--where's my vote?--
Where's the paper?
Feel free to interchange and mix it up, or even try a game where
different people have to interject with different truths. 
- WHO REALLY WON -- I DUNNO -- GOTTA AUDIT!

Also, here are more ideas.
- Magnetic signs for your car
- If you know a trucker, have them put a message in the window as they
drive across the county.
- Make a patch and put it on the front of your baseball cap
- Carry a sign and stand in the window outside the Today Show

If we have to be our own media, so be it. We will not sacrifice
democracy just because TV executive producers have a problem with this
issue.
