BBV: URGENT request!
I've got a contact with a journalist who urgently needs a copy of the documentation on the Diebold pass-through payments (GTech, Georgia lottery front group) for an ongoing investigation that COULD just blow this whole thing wide open. There's a major political corruption angle apparently, and a copy of the documentation Bev's been referencing is critical. Can anybody get a pdf to me FAST? PLEASE?

3. talked with Andy
the documentation is only 'hard copy' right now so they're nothing they can do until they are back in Seattle. (they're in NYC right now)

but, if you can PM me with more info I'll pass it on to them. perhaps you can give me a contact number and Bev can talk with the reporter?

will be checking.

13. Thanks, Jeff.
I'll check to see if it's okay to pass the contact info on. I really appreciate your getting in touch with Andy. I don't think I have his current cell number. It got misplaced when I moved 6 weeks ago, and Bev is almost impossible to reach quickly.

14. I know!
she said last night that her phone NEVER stops ringing and it's always something important.

i will keep an eye on my PMs.

(we had a great time last night. Bev and Andy were at the ?W Revue and then we had a wonderful group of DUers, cast members and others for a huge chatfest post-performance. it was a great way to close the run!)

I think this is all they have up right now. As a poster said above, Bev & Andy are out of town right now.

8. I think you're confusing her with someone else
I can't recall that she's ever been critical or dismissive of ANYone on DU (well, okay, once in a Howard Dean thread to someone who was a real ass on good days), and certainly not either Bev or Andy.

9. agree
surely Andy would have raised a flag when I called himm earlier. I *think* I know who you might be confusing her with, but I won't speculate on the forum...

11. I know who you're talking about
and probably the same person as Nostamj. And it's NOT Hedda. ;-)

12. Nope. It's definitely NOT me.
Yikes! I don't know who you're confusing me with, but I've never been anti-Bev and certainly never never never never anything but completely supportive of bbv. Both Bev and Andy know me off DU as well as on.

Here's my group's site. http://www.ballotintegrity.org We're working with all the BBV activists and groups including Bev. It's just hard to get in touch with her while she's in NYC.

15. Hedda ROCKS!
:yourock: If you do get in touch with Bev or Andy please let them know Janet is waiting for a fax from Andy and I need something from Bev ASAP. :)

Bev, I'll be meeting with JK on Tuesday. I need some info on dates to put comments into perspective. :evilgrin:
