6. Saw a bumpersticker yesterday that read "November 2"
That's all. It was very new looking.

Anyone know where these are from?

10. I don't want to be critical but
the video is awesome, please don't take this the wrong way.

but there is too much focus on long lines in ohio and not enough on evidence of electronic voting fraud nationwide.

people have heard about the long lines and voter suppression in ohio. it is good to remind them of it.

BUT we must get the word out about the e-voting problems, which people are NOT aware of. Common Cause has a huge distribution list and I wish they would use it to tell people about the problems with electronic voting. It's not just malfunctions. There is nothing in the video about how 80% of our votes nationwide were counted by two republican private companies who had the means and motive to change the outcome by millions of votes.

Not only on the video, but their website commoncause.org/saveourelections doesn't mention it either. They talk about the importance of a paper trail, but don't mention that a paper trail does not prevent stolen elections, it only makes a recount possible.

I don't want to criticize the good work these people are doing. But I fear they are missing the big issue.

Gary

11. Yes, Gary, whether by design or ignorance.
I can't tell which.

What is WRONG that people don't get that we need paper ballots and IF machines are MANDATED, that it's the SECURITY issues that are the problem?

12. I agree, garybeck.

Those long lines and the disenfranchisement are important, but they mask the theft at a much larger level.

13. Let's write Common Cause....
...to educate them and ask them to place more emphasis on electronic fraud.
