ACTION ALERT 1 hour left to tell CA SOS to not certify LA County VSAP "voting" system

Last edited Mon Jan 20, 2020, 07:33 PM - Edit history (2)

Please contact the state of California at VotingSystems@sos.ca.gov immediately to ask them to NOT certify the new Ballot Marking Devices (VSAP) system for Los Angeles County, and to require a HAND-MARKED paper ballot for all voters at the polling place in this year's crucial primary and general election.

Please contact them even if you're not from LA County or California or the US -- LA County is the largest county in the US and is where the districts for reps such as Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters, and Ted Lieu are located.

We can't afford to screw up the Mar. 3rd primary.

THE DEADLINE IS 5 PM TODAY, Jan. 20th, 2020.

And while we're at it, have them hand-counted at the precinct level with public oversight!
