Reply #12: I believe it can happen now.

Thanks to brave Barbara Boxer and the others who stood up in Congress, the media is finally starting to cover this. Astoundingly, a CNN poll as of last night showed 65% of the people think the election should be investigated. Our local NBC TV station's poll showed similarly strong support--in a Republican area!

Word is getting out. As the public outrage grows and conservatives turn to their own elected officials demanding electoral reform, and as the media shines the light at least through some local publications that still tell the truth, I think Congress will ultimately be forced to grit their teeth and cooperate.

Rossi's whining in Washington state works to Dems advantages, I think, because it makes even Republicans start wondering if their votes were counted fairly.

Keep the pressure up, all. Now is the time to increase our efforts, not slack off. Organize groups of citizens and demand face time with your representatives. If they think they're going to make the local TV news with a bunch of picketers carrying signs saying "Senator (fill in the name) supports rigged elections" and
"We need paper ballots now!" I'll bet he'd change his tune.
