E Voting: Write Oprah's Producers NOW...

[Hell Hath No Fury]

Time to keep the pressure on.

Oprah's show reaches millions of households across the country -- households that very well may know nothing about the potential for fraud when it comes to electronic voting and who need educating FAST before the next election.

You can go to her site using the following link and request that she cover the electronic voting issue:

http://www.oprah.com/email/reach/email_showideas.jhtml

From many of her shows over the years it is clear that voting rights are VERY important to this woman, and I feel potential voter fraud is a subject that will resonate with her.

I have heard that she regrets letting a certain politician use her show as a platform for his candidacy -- this might be a great atonement for her. :)

2. great idea!

Done. I don't watch her, but TONS of SAHMs do, and this might open their eyes.

3. I sent mine.

The site requires that you enter a street address and phone number, but I suppose that discourages the loonies from harassing her.

4. Bimp!

(That's "bump" for all you non Peter Seller's fans.)

5. Don't forget Bill Moyers...

He's been known to take "requests" in the past, so dropping him a line at http://www.pbs.org/now/feedback.html would be an excellent idea.

on edit: Don't forget to mention our own Bev Harris and/or http://blackboxvoting.com/

10. Oprah has gone soft in the past few years...

This followed the roasting she had in Texas about the Beef Trial. I don't blame her..I love Oprah but she hooked into Dr. Phil and ran with the "processing of feelings" theme for shows. I'm not sure she would take the risk anymore.

12. She did some amazing shows during the....

lead up to the invasion into Iraq really questioning WHY we were doing this, and she put a face on the people of Iraq for Americans to see so they would know THIS is who we are threatening to bomb -- it's not just some spot on a map.

She presented both sides but made it quite clear she did not support the effort.

I'm hoping this story will reawaken the old journalist in her.

Dear Yahoo Editors,

RE: http://scoop.co.nz/mason/features/?s=usacoup

Scoop media broke Bev Harris's scoop story on US voting machine security that is currently featuring in the features section of the
YAHOO! US Elections Full Coverage page.


Scoop is THE SOURCE FOR BREAKING news on this issue and has been following it since November 2002.

I think the....

A Very American Coup - Scoop Feature Page link
http://scoop.co.nz/mason/features/?s=usacoup

Should be included in the related sites section of the page.

... SNIP....

It will take all of a minute to do. Once they get 50 requests I reckon they will find it hard to ignore. A few people kicking this thread might also help...
