1. Didn't Jimmy Carter say he would not do it?
I thought I heard him say something like that a while ago.

Sponsor a Volunteer Poll Monitor on Election Day!
Your support is needed so every vote will count

With less than one month to go before the most important election of our lifetime, daily reports of major election irregularities in Florida, Ohio, Kentucky, and numerous other states continue to pour in to Election Proection offices.

We cannot allow another Florida to happen this year -- whether in Florida or any other state.

People For the American Way Foundation is hard at work in more than a dozen states where voters' rights are most at risk. The Election Protection program will have 30,000 volunteer poll monitors and thousands of lawyers on the ground in over 3,500 precincts around the country assuring that no more "Florida-style" problems will ever again cast doubt on the outcome of an election.

It costs People For the American Way Foundation about $50 to train, outfit, feed, and transport a single volunteer on Election Day. Please sponsor one or more volunteers by making the most generous contribution you can.

Donations to People For the American Way Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization, are tax deductible.
