Too much information - need to make it easy to digest
I've been collecting every story I can find at http://2004electiontheft.com

Now, what I'd like to do is make a flyer, maybe a tri-fold, maybe 2-5 pages even.

Needs to be as information packed as possible. I'd like to break it into categories such as exit polls and projections, current actions & litigation, state by state, main stream media, etc.

We need a one stop shopping election theft flyer to distribute. Who's with me? How can we make a convincing case that election fraud occurred?

Maybe 1 or 2 of the best links from each category could be summarized..what are the best links in each category?

1. A suggestion...
It *does not* need to be as information packed as possible and should not exceed 2 pages.

You're not going to convince anyone with a flyer anonymously handed out. The best you can hope for is to hit the reader with some heavyduty shit and drive them to your (or any relevant) web site.

So my suggestion would be to find between 1 and 3 of the most glaringly obvious examples of fraud - stuff that doesn't take a lot to explain or understand. A good example would be the anomoly in OH where Bush got something like 4200 votes in a precinct where there were only 800 registered voters.

Something that will get people to think *on their own* that something is amiss. If you can fool them into thinking that your suspicions are their suspicions, they're much more likely to follow-up and do the necessary legwork for themselves.

Additionally, I don't think information about the lawsuits, challenges, etc. is going to be useful there because what you really want them to do is to understand that there's some shit going on. If you spend a lot of time showing them that some action is being taken, they are much more likely to think "Oh, well it's being dealt with, so I don't need to do anything".

My two cents.

Mostly.
