Can we prevent a national election meltdown?

Will they hack the presidential election? According to this week's Christian Science Monitor, "if someone could get a few minutes’ unattended access to a paperless machine, that person could install a software virus that could spread to other machines and switch those machines’ votes before deleting all traces of itself."

Be prepared. Act now in three important steps:
  1. Sign the  Pledge of Action and forward it to everyone you know.
  2. Donate to our Rapid Response Fund.
  3. Organize a  Voter Assembly in your community for Nov 7th, the day after the election.
With the clock ticking, every hour brings new reports of serious voting rights violations.

From Ohio, today, came the news that experimental software patches were installed on vote counting tabulators in up to 39 Ohio counties.  The Free Press has found that an elections corporation, Election Systems and Solutions (ES&S), installed software patches that will impact 4,041,056 registered voters, including those in metropolitan Columbus and Cleveland. This software install violates Ohio law because this software has never been tested by public authorities. And this, just 5 days before Election Day.

People in Florida, Virginia and Indiana have gotten calls falsely telling them they can vote early by phone and don't need to go to a polling place. In suburban Broward County, Fla., a handful of elderly voters who requested absentee ballots say they were visited by unknown people claiming to be authorized to collect the ballots.

In 2004, we organized the first No Stolen Elections! campaign and launched the Ohio Recount. In 2008, 2011, and 2012, our No More Stolen Elections! efforts have exposed fraud, forced recounts, and built momentum for hand-counted paper ballots and other essential reforms. But we can't afford to rest now. We need the resources to keep moving forward. We must be ready on Election Day.  Please give now. 

Two stolen presidential elections is two too many. The only thing that could be more true than that is that a third presidential election is being manipulated right now.

Remember:
  1. Sign the  Pledge of Action and forward it to everyone you know.
  2. Donate to our Rapid Response Fund.
  3. Organize a  Voter Assembly in your community for Nov 7th, the day after the election.
Yours for Democracy,
