I mean, now is the time, so let's go ahead and beg the media to interview specified persons who are truly knowledgeable, credible experts, who hopefully also come across well in media formats. Who would those folks be?

I think we need a computer geek or two, to discuss black box problems, and
a statistician to discuss exit polls vs. reported outcomes, and
someone familiar with the results of the kinds of investigation Conyers has done, and
someone knowledgeable about the legal angles,
among others.

(We need people who don't come across as overly partisan.)

I think ruefully of a pre-election Diane Rehm show on electronic voting on which she had folks who seemed to be completely ignorant of potential problems. There are plenty of folks offered by others as experts; it looks a lot like we've GOT to offer our own.

Let's TELL the media who they shd talk to and WHY--i.e., provide credentials, etc.
