Hello Friends:
I'm on the road again with trips to DC and to New York City. In DC I'll be fundraising at several locations and showing the film American Blackout on Howard University's campus. In New York City I will be at the Audubon Ballroom, the infamous location of Malcolm X's murder. Please plan to come out and support!
Given the results revealed in the New Hampshire recount of about a 20% rate of error in the vote tabulation and the New York Times story revealing that at least one precinct heavy with black voters recorded zero votes for Obama, I must question how both major political parties can remain silent in the face of such lack of election integrity. Voters are being purged from voter files and electronic pollbooks incorrectly record voters' party affilitations, among other things. I have consistently, from the moment Diebold's touch screen machines were first deployed in our country--in Georgia in 2002--demanded election integrity. In courtroom action to obtain election data in my 2006 Congressional election, the expert witness for the State of Georgia, defending the position that election data belong to Diebold, advised the court that voters would just have to "trust" the election results that were announced. In the 2008 election cycle, how much trust must we have when confronted with blatant inconsistencies in every voting experience?
Unfortunately, none of this is new and despite the glaring need, neither political party is addressing this issue. In 2000, the Democratic Party refused to stand for election integrity and its own victory that the voters gave it, in an outright election theft by the Republican Party that was allowed to stand. In 2004, the Democratic Party failed to support black voters disfranchised by the Republican Party; it was Democratic grassroots voters along with the Green and Libertarian Parties who refused to give in--even as John Kerry was conceding the very next day after the election. In light of nothing to date having been done to address election integrity by the Congress, I must ask, what happens if, when the election results are announced in November, we don't "trust" them?
