38. AGREED we should all fundraise for election reform...
But Dean and Ohio Team folks need to realize, Ohio is not the only place that needs funding.


Georgia for example is a much better place to litigate and win against election fraud. Why? Because we are 100% DRE (Electronic voting) it's a clean slate from a test case perspective, meaning we know that one kind of voting was implemented statewide and not like OH where there were so many voting machines and styles, it's impossible to get a cohesive look at how the voting was rigged statewide... then you are left to litigate disenfranchisement which is like litigating the african american's right to vote before the voting rights act of 1965... the laws just aren't there for disenfranchisement.

While Georgia is not electorally significant, if Georgia can invalidate all DRE votes as being fraudulent, it will put over 36Million votes nationwide into question. This is a much bigger stong point than just winning in OH.

So please, DNC listen carefully... pick a few other states, FL, CA, MD, GA, WA and please spend some money in those states.. right now we have to do all our own fundraising or in my case I"ve paid over $10K out of pocket just to get the friggin informatoin needed to go to court (they really want you to do your own discovery).

Also, look at the solid and growing evidence of Vote Manipulation and the serious dangers of depending on Corporations for a. secret vote counting b. election system management at this website....
www.countpaperballots.com

Also, get DemocracyForAmerica to get off their proverbial butts and do something PRACTICAL... my GA DFA has become a glorified movie and social club... in fact our main guy, Tim Cairl, actually wrote an email discouraging citizens from attending a Cathy Cox event intended to answer questions about the election systems in place....

bottom line, DNC do more than give lip service and money to OH, do something serious and get out in the REAL GRASSROOTS, you know Dean, the real folks who put you into power... don't do everything so damn centralized....
