BBV: We Need Your Help
We have two organizations that are fighting the battle to save your vote.

We need funding to continue the fight for democracy.

Will you help? Every little bit counts!

Thank you.

4. Tell me about it! LOL!
While we're on the subject of donating to help save our democracy, I'm trying to solicit the donation of a used laptop computer for Bev and Andy while their out on the road fighting these lawsuits for all of us. It doesn't have to be a 'top of the line' unit, just something with a modem that can be used for e-mail while on the road with enough storage to hold the numerous briefs, notes and background files they need access to.
I've already had 1 donation of an old IBM ThinkPad 486 with 16 Meg of ram
running Windows 3.1. No modem, no CD, 2 dead batteries and a really nice 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz input power supply that will work anywhere in the world! Too old slow and heavy to be of much use. :(

Recycling for the Resistance. :evilgrin: :kick:

7. A Reminder
To keep getting this in front of the masses, we need help.

It's happening, note the states now introducing legislation for voter verified paper ballots.

Help keep the issue up front!

8. People seem to be a tad preoccupied at the moment.....
.....with the primaries, Aaron Brown, the Passion movie and Howard Stern but I'm sure that they'll be along any time now to volunteer their support. :evilgrin:

(Either that or they'll be screaming bloody murder later when it's too late to do anything asking, 'why didn't anyone DO something to stop this? :eyes: )

Come on folks, please kick in if you can and if you can't help financially, just help keep this kicked. Call, write and e-mail your representatives. Let them know how you feel about your vote. If you have a CD burner and a few spare CD's, download and copy Bev's book and send them to your friends and family. If you can afford to buy a print version for yourself, a friend, family member or your local election officials, do it to help offset the costs of fighting these machines.

Help spread the word, it really is that important! :)

9. We are winning gradually...
Looks like we may have won Missouri

Please support our sites folks - we are working night and day for you.

Some of us quit our jobs to do this work, and have been on it for months. Give a bit so we can keep going.
