51 capital march/Noon Dec 12th. Your State Capital. Voting Rights March
http://www.51capitalmarch.com /

More information at link.
On December 12th 2004 at 12 noon, before the steps of your State Capital and the Federal Capital, join with us to protest the theft of our votes and our voting rights in the 2004 election.

As citizens, it is our duty to protect those basic rights that insure the survival of our democracy and constitution for present and future generations of Americans.

Egregious infringements of our voting rights occurred in the 2004 election: our voting systems were compromised and our votes violated. The line was crossed: we no longer trust our voting systems. As citizens, we must stand together and demand of our fellow citizen electors:


Do NOT cast your vote for President and Vice President until state election officials provide a complete, accurate, and verified vote recount.
Of our state and federal election officials:


Provide a verified, accurate, and complete recount of the votes cast in the November 2nd elections.
Of our state and federal representatives:
Immediately investigate the root causes of voting system and voting process failures during the 2004 elections Act to ensure the integrity of all future elections.
Join with us in a people's uprising, a citizen protest. Volunteer to help mobilize the citizens of your state to converge on your state capital in peaceful protest of our stolen rights.

On December 12th, go to your state or federal capital and make your voice heard.

Make a sign and show up!

Kip Humphrey
The 51 Capital March

But I love the idea.

2. Have one in Albany AND in NYC.
I know a lot of Hudson Valley people who would go to Albany but not want to make the drive to the city.

Then the city folk can have their own demonstration, as they won't want to travel up 87 -- or can't because they live in the city and don't have a car.
