[Peace] Electoral Board Hearing on IRV Petition

[Jan & Durl Kruse]

Supporters of Instant Runoff Voting, Your Presence is Needed to Make  
a Difference!

What?

     * Municipal Election Board Hearing.

A challenge to the IRV (Instant Run-off voting) for Urbana petitions.  
An attempt is being made to STOP a grassroots effort to place a  
binding referendum on the 02/05/08 ballot that would give local  
Urbana voters the opportunity to change our local election  
process......... to IRV.............. a process that allows citizens  
a greater voice and participation in their elections.

When?

* This Tuesday December 4, 2007 1:30 pm Courtroom H, Champaign County  
Courthouse Downtown Urbana!

WHY this challenge?

* Both local Democrats and local Republicans have a role to play in  
this possible denial of grassroots democracy!

How is this possible?

* Al Klein (First Vice-Chair of the Champaign County Democratic  
Party) has filed an objection to the IRV petitions to be placed on  
the February 5, 2008 Primary.

* Incompetent advice and faulty information from local Republican  
County Clerk [Mark Shelden] regarding the number of signatures required.

What you can do!

* Please come and support this local effort!

Your presence could help make a difference!

Both Urbana and Champaign residents are asked to attend.

    We need a large turn out!  Please HELP!
