We have all been hearing & posting about all the voter problems.
Voter fraud, registration problems, & other hanky panky going on.
I thought maybe we could have a one thread (to be continued to others as needed) that could outline these problems when they happen and include links when possible.
I believe it would make the fight against these problems easier.
And allow us all to remain updated.
If you agree, maybe start here.

2. I see your point, but
I disagree. Maybe post with the State first (e.g. IL/DuPage Cty - Ballot Fraud) and detail it in the text with links if possible.

It will be a lot easier to track where the major problems are if they are all in one place vs. 51 different locations. JMHO.

3. That was kinda my point.
I see these issues in the State Forums, GD04, etc. & sometimes it's hard to remember all of them & where they were. Even doing searches can be hard & time consuming.
I just hoped this might be a way to have a central location as well as posting in other forums.

4. Maybe we can ask Skinner
to put a sticky post at the top with the title:
"Post Voting Problem Stories Here"

Then ask each post to title their post with state involved and nature of problem i.e. "New Mexico, Faulty Touch-Screen Voting" then detail the problem or provide a link in the post. I think this would help a lot.

I think this is a really important subject because we will very likely face a lot of Rovian post-election tactics with lawsuits and whatnot. If we can provide a long list of problems to Kerry's legal teams or whoever else might need them, I think we can really help. Thousands of us reporting these things will our eagle eyes will surely catch something that got overlooked. Especially considering how many problems are popping up.

I just want to be totally prepared for whatever Rove will be sending our way.

7. Maybe, maybe not
Either way we need to have as much evidence as possible. It certainly will be more helpful to have compiled evidence before the election than complain about it afterward and have nothing to back it up.
