3. Here is the link! Keep it kicked

This link should take you to the votersunite.org website.
It has pictures and little boxes to symbolically throw into the river.

In my case the Pacific Ocean.
What a cool idea!!!!

I am going to forward it to all my friends and see what we can get started in California!

5. I'm so excired about this idea!

We must do this all over the place!

It is creative and it is just perfect for involving the entire family.

If each person could send this to their town/city grassroots organizer, we could have a National Day of Education regarding this FRAUD.

Let's roll and keep kicked!

13. Your ideas inspired me to keep this kicked


I see the frustation in other threads.
We are feeling so helpless and we can't waste our time feeling that way.

This project is designed to let others know, in a creative and peaceful way about this stolen election.

We know the media will not tell the story, but we can tell the Truth in a charming way, let's MARCH and join the BBV Tea Party.

And don't forget to do urgent actions to facilitate recounts (which could possibly lead to overturning the election!) and investigate fraud on this page-- thanks, Cheryl

12. Everyone contact your Democratic Club leaders

We need to have big showings and small showings.

I see an excellent opportunity to make this a family affair.
We need to show our children and grand children how to peacefully protest.

I can just see a little marching band of 3/4 children dressed in red, white and blue!

Love the idea of the flags too!
Let's show our patriotism.

17. Ours is up - similar and timed with the national stuff
We coincided ours with the tea party ones that are hopefully happening all over the place today. In Seattle (Fremont, actually, which is, as the locals know, the center of the universe) the "Waiting For The Interurban" received some adornment today. The statues have T-shirts portraying the Black Box Tea Party emblem and saying PAPER TRAIL, THE CURE FOR ELECTILE DYSFUNCTION. There are assorted other decorations and a black vote box which shows blue votes going in and red votes coming out and is labeled with all of our favorite companies names. The best part is that across the top of the Interurban using bright pink paper with black ink (protected from the rain with sheet protectors) is BLACKBOXVOTING.ORG. It's huge, gaudy and very visible!!

Pictures have been taken and will be arriving back soon (yeah, no one had a digital camera!).
