TAKE TO THE STREETS
I am assisting in organizing a huge Rally in Columbus Ohio on
Saturday December 4 from 1-3pm named "FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY
RALLY"  at the Ohio Statehouse. Citizens' Alliance for
Secure Elections (CASEOhio.org) is hosting it.  They are one
of the three groups  who will be CONTESTING the election in
Ohio. We need thousands of People to attend to draw attention
to the many  voter issues that has been documented by
CASEOhio.org; Free Press.org and Commoncause.  1 in 18 votes
did not count in 2000.  We can NOT allow voters to be
disenfranchised again.  PLEASE, we need huge numbers for this
event to bring this into the public's eye.  We have sent out
requests for speakers-we learned from the past campaign that
they really bring out the numbers.  If any of you can be of
help, either by getting the word out or helping arrange a
guest speaker (we would really love to get John Lewis, among
others), we would really appreciate it.  OHIO DID NOT HAVE
EQUAL TREATMENT UNDER THE LAW! Im a 1st time blogger so please
excuse any faux pas.

ALSO: small group is planning a Tea Party dumping, on the day befor.. sat nov 27.
details in link within the main link i put above.

But i think Jesse's Sunday event will be the biggest one by far.

39. Sounds fabulous, wish we could attend,
but we're in the expansive Pacific Northwest. But, what about getting the information to:

-local liberal newspapers
-college campuses
-dem 527s (i.e., MoveOn, ACT, RockTheVote -- assuming some of these are still quasi-active, but they would have huge email lists)
-send flyer to: www.michaelmoore.com, www.buzzflash.com, www.bandelier.net, www.democrats.com, and other blog sites (local blog sites in OH too)

keep us all posted!

Invite everyone you know! we really need to show the world we are still involved. I read a posting yesterday that really struck home:
"
Ukrainians are marching to FORCE the correction of a fraudulent election, In America, we are busy shopping"

I am ashamed that more people are not involved. We need people to step up to the plate and make sure their voices are heard. We must DEMAND every voter counts and every vote must be counted! The repugs are expecting us to fade away into the holiday purchasing (AUGHH!)season. We can't let our fellow dems simply "move on".

56. I'm an activist
and proud of it. I am working as a volunteer with CASEOhio, organizing this Rally on Sat and we really wanted to get the word out and since nobody else volunteered I thought I would give it a try (at POSTING). Please feel freeto make suggestions to me as to the best way to get this information out! I read a posting (out of many) that really hit home.

"Ukrainians are marching to demand correction of a fradulent election, in America we're shopping".

If we all demand equal treatment under the law, and we all put away our credit cards, step away from our computers and get out on the streets we can DEMAND a full investigation of this election. We need numbers, like the Ukrainians. We need ten even hundreds of thousands of people to DEMAND a correction.

57. I've never chartered a bus before, but I just did a google search and
sent in for a quote. I posted the rally on a local Nov3 yahoo thread. If I can get 45 people to sign on, we'll divide the cost. I think I can find a few sponsors to help bring the cost down. I imagine plenty of people would like to go but can't, so they would be happy to pass the hat in order to participate.
It's an 8 hour trip from Madison to Ohio, so we'll leave at 5 a.m., get there at 1. Leave at 4p.m. get home at midnight.

59. MMABT-Love the name
but I really love the support. We need everyone to DEMAND a full investigation into the election. If you guys come to Columbus on Sat 12/4 , we will not disapoint you. we all worked too hard on the electtion to just sit back. WE WILL NEVER GET OUT THE VOTE AGAIN, UNLESS WE DEMAND EVERY VOTE MUST COUNT! KERRY PROMISED US, WE PROMISED THE DETERMINED PEOPLE WAITING IN THOSE LONG LINES, that if they persevered (and many did wait for over 4 hours in the cold rain) we would make sure their vote counted. I promised this and I intend to keep my promise!

Put away your credit cards, step away from your life and make your voices heard. Come out and DEMAND Change! Join us in Ohio!

It's 12 hrs ea. way and $128 round trip. I think I can do it but I doubt they'll let me put a seditious sign on the side of the bus.

Or maybe I can sneak it on and the driver won't notice. :evilgrin:

61. Thank you for your efforts!
We progressive Ohioans appreciate your support. We need to make this a huge Rally to break open this story. There are really dems out there that have "moved on". 1 in 18 votes did not count in 2000 (MIT and CalTech study.) THIS IS NOT ACCETABLE! WE MUST DEMAND correction of our fraudulous election just like our friends in the Ukraine.

58. Check out the KRWU
I'm going to check with my local political groups to see if anyone has a bus going or wants to get one. (not sure if there is time) Since you are in Philly, I might suggest talking to groups like the Kensignton Welfare Rights Union-
http://www.kwru.org/ They might not have a bus going but they might know other local groups:)

104. C-SPAN has an excellent video on the Ohio legal challenges
Cliff Arnebeck, National Co-Chairman for the Alliance for Democracy and counsel in a lawsuit challenging the presidential election in Ohio, discusses the legal challenges to the 2004 vote in Ohio.
12/2/2004: WASHINGTON, DC: 30 min.
http://www.c-span.org/search/basic.asp?ResultStart=1&ResultCount=10&BasicQueryText=ohio&image1.x=24&image1.y=4

After viewing the video you will understand why there have not been legal challenges initiated before today. Cliff is a rock solid spokesperson for the truth.

Lastly, but most importantly, please do attend the protest if you can. You owe it to your self and to your country....

I have to say that the Bush protest in Ottawa, Canada (which I attended) yanked me from my slough of despond over the election result.

We had 40,000+ support the American patriots in in freezing temperatures

Canadians believe in the Real America (not *)
