November 3rd -- Will We Be Ready to Make our Votes Count?
http://www.alternet.org/election04/20272/

Let's start with the conclusion: We encourage people to do their part for democracy leading up to Nov. 2, and then prepare to return to the streets on Nov. 3 (and perhaps beyond), at predetermined, symbolic, convenient locally-chosen sites.

...

To defend ourselves against all their potential tricks, we need people. We need eyeballs, watching every precinct. We need skilled techies, to look for the clues that will reveal black box cheating. We need organizers and grassroots activists, to provide support for voters at the polls, and to turn out so many new people that the would-be cheaters will be overwhelmed by the vote for change. We need lawyers. We need donors, big and small.

And we need bodies, to provide the "street heat" that may well be necessary to secure a fair vote count in the days and weeks after election day. That's where nov3.us, comes in, working in conjunction with United for Peace and Justice and many grassroots groups.


We are seeing big turnout in the early voting but the Boosh-media insists this race is close. We have come this far and I think it is only prudent to think about November 3rd and beyond. We will need a fair count of all the votes.

1. The last battle at Mordor
This fight after the finish will determine the future of the world. Every person must protest. Every person must not give up. The ring must be destroyed or all is lost.
