Reply #25: It CAN be done! We can have democracy here, too, in the U.S. of A.! [View All]

1. Think long term, like the South Americans have done. Priority #1: TRANSPARENT elections. We may not achieve it this year. We WILL, in the end. They cannot kill our democracy!

2. Pressure the Democratic Party to conduct INDEPENDENT exit polls. The corporate news monopoly exit polls cannot be trusted. They (Edison-Mitofsky) have promised never to let us see their REAL exit poll numbers again. And this is the LEAST the Democratic Party can do for us--independent exit polls--considering their failure to protect our right to vote, for whatever reasons of corruption, fear or insanity!

3. Monitor election officials and election results, gather evidence for challenges and for the case against non-transparent electronic voting. Raise hell with election officials about non-transparent systems. Investigate corruption. Throw them out of office.

4. This fraudulent election system CAN be defeated by an overwhelming turnout of voters determined to beat the fraud. But we must be honest with people, tell them the TRUTH, and involve them in overcoming the rigged machines. Bumper sticker: "HELP BEAT THE MACHINES! VOTE!"
