SUBJECT: "Please Investigate And Report On The Election Irregularities"

"As you know, the national news media are rapidly losing credibility and audiences. Many people simply don't trust the media any more, because the media have failed to fulfill their responsibility to investigate and report genuine hard news. The 2004 election provides you with an unprecedented opportunity to get the scoop on your competition, with a story of national, even global importance. If you choose to ignore this story, you do so at your peril, because your audience will be judging you on this, and will seek out information from other outlets if it's not available on yours.

Here are just a few of the hard facts that indicate serious problems with the 2004 election:

(1) Bev Harris of http://www.blackboxvoting.org has obtained 'official
copies' of polling place vote count receipts from Volusia County officials. She has also obtained the original receipts signed by poll workers, by rescuing them from bags marked 'shredder' outside Volusia County offices. The counts shown on the two sets do not match.

(2) The Government Accountability Office (GAO, formerly General
Accounting Office) has decided to investigate the election, based on over 57,000 complaints received from voters.

(3) The Wyoming Secretary Of State's official web site at
http://soswy.state.wy.us/election/profile.htm is reporting 106% voter
turnout.

It's your choice. Investigate now or lose credibility and audience share when the story comes out on your competitors later.

Thank you,
