32. Ok. here's mine. Sorta emotional perhaps.
I e-mailed it to every single Senator on the list and started faxing today as well.

Dear Senator,

As you are undoubtedly aware, Representative Conyers will be objecting to the Ohio Electors on January 6th due to the large number of voter irregularities concerning the last election. I greatly admire his dedication and even-handedness while conducted his investigation so far. I respectfully beg of you to stand with him to assure a clear and transparent investigation concerning this extremely upsetting situation.

I know I am not alone when I say that our democracy, the very fiber of our country, is at stake. If the citizenry does not feel confident that the election was fair and clean, then we are opening a Pandora’s Box of frightening scenarios.

I am not a political person but I believe in this “grand experiment” called American. Most troubling to me are the many allegations of voter suppression. This makes me literally sick for our country. How is it possible, in the good old US of A, that citizens had to wait in lines for up to 6 to 10 hours to cast their vote? In the rain, old people, disabled people, people with little kids? This is not right and the “average Joe/Jane” is very well aware of it. This whole mess stinks to high heaven. Please, you are a powerful person; use your influence to stand with Representative Conyers to get to the bottom of this.

It seems that everyday brings more and more evidence and new lawsuits concerning the Election problems. To me it is obvious that Ohio Sec. of State Blackwell and friends are trying to pull a fast one with our democracy. How it is possible that someone with Blackwell’s obvious conflict of interest can stonewall this investigation by refusing to testify under oath? Why is he above the law?

There are MANY documented problems and concerns not only in Ohio, Florida, and New Mexico but from all over the country. Very strange things happened this time around. I’m from WA State. Look what happened here!

I implore you! Please stand firm with Mr. Conyers on Jan. 6th. This may be the hardest fight of our lifetimes but we owe it to our future to attempt to remove this horrible stain from our great nation.

Most respectfully,
