Could we do a PUSH poll -- an honest one? PUSH polls have education as their primary goal though we can also collect opinions at the same time.
The Republicans have used dishonest push polls in the past to discredit Democratic Candidates. They set up a phone poll to ask questions like "Would you be less likely to vote for Bill Clinton if you knew that he had fathered sixteen illegitimate children during his first term in office?" Their questions give information that happens to be completely false.
In YOUR push poll you could educate!
1. Are you aware that in a recount of all ballots cast in Florida after the 2000 Presidential election Al Gore won no matter what criterion was used in the recount?
2. Are you aware that computer vote fraud was involved in setting conditions that stopped the recounts in Florida in the 2000 Presidential election?
3. Are you aware that evidence exists that shows that vote fraud occured in the 2003 elections for Governor of California?
4. Are you aware that the two biggest voting machine companies - Diebold & ES&S have strong ties to the Republican party and that the CEO of Diebold, Walden O'Dell, stated his committment to delivering the votes in Ohio to President Bush in the 2004 election?
5. Are you aware that at least five of the officers in Diebold have been convicted of felonies - most notoriously Vice President Jeff Dean who was convicted of 23 counts of felony - some of which involved computer fraud?
