GuvWurld has his ass out there way ahead of everybody. While others were being nice, he was calling out Diebold and he's still walking around. I really like the Hal Ashby quotes in this article.


================
http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL0512/S00246.htm

Dan Ashby of the Voting Rights Task Force (VRTF) told us, "Our most recent meeting concluded with recognition that instead of always reacting defensively to further inroads on electoral integrity, we need to come up with some full time proactive strategies."

"This realign or resign campaign directed at election officials in the Diebold counties seems to me a very good place to start," Ashby said.
Activist groups like the CPEN and VRTF are now determining if and how they will participate with the GuvWurld campaign. Ashby is hoping that activist pressure will convince Secretary of State McPherson to refuse to recertify Diebold's DRE touch screens in California. He argues that, "To reward this worst-of-class, repeat offender by granting an extended franchise in the nation's largest voting market - after all the Diebold dirt that has floated to the surface these past few years - is just unthinkable."

Berman is working with the CEPN groups in California, national forums on election integrity, and has plans to expand the campaign to other political groups in the state.

"Election conditions must change in order to ensure conclusive outcomes and create a basis for confidence in the results reported," he said. "Officials resigned to the status quo should resign their positions and make way for those determined to improve these conditions."

"The right of voting for representatives is the primary right by which all others are protected. To take away this right is to reduce a man to slavery."
- Thomas Paine
