BBV: you (BEV HARRIS) say (BEV HARRIS) you wonder what you can do? (BEV

BEV HARRIS! (i don't mind using a HOT term) ;-)

http://www.blackboxvoting.org/blackboxvotingcgi/dcforum/dcboard.cgi

register. sign on for your state. and then introduce yourself on the "talent pool" thread to say hello.

Bev, RedEagle and JohnGideon need very specific help on a very short-term project.

there's more detail on the site but the bottom line is this:

specifically what voting machines are being used in your state/county. make/model, any and all details.

please check out the state forums on www.blackboxvoting.org so you don't duplicate ongoing work.

many states are needed.

the deadline is monday 12/8

you say you wonder what you can do?

are you all candidate bashing?

They have interactive maps with voting machine equipment by county.

I believe BBV wants brand, model and software revision.

"We need to have as much information as possible from every state that uses DRE (touchscreen) or Optical-Scan voting machines. We need the following information: Manufacturer of the machines that are in use Model of those machines Version number of the firmware and software in use on those machines. So, for example it would read: Diebold - AccuTouch TSr - firmware version 4.3.11 - software version ?.??.?? We would like to have as much information as possible compiled by Monday night (Dec. 8). The information can be gathered from your local elections official or from your state Secretary of States office.

Post to your state forum at Blackboxvoting.org and we will get them from there."
