Guest guest Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 EFF and Verfiedvoting push for machine testing in 8 counties nationwide http://www.eff.org/e-vote/petition This is the link to sign their petition. November 22, 2004 EFF, Verified Voting Push for Post-Election Tests on E-voting Machines Independent Tests by Counties May Answer Lingering Questions About Accuracy, Machine Failures San Francisco - On November 2, voting machines in many states -- both " red " and " blue " -- had problems that led thousands of citizens to call a national voter protection hotline. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Verified Voting Foundation (VVF) were at the other end of the line, and the two organizations are very concerned about what they heard. In several states, voters who chose one presidential candidate were presented with confirmation screens that listed another candidate's name. In others, machines crashed and were rebooted repeatedly, but nobody knows whether votes were lost. EFF and VVF have responded by sending letters to voting officials in the eight counties that experienced the worst technical problems, urging the officials to allow independent testing of the machines. Such tests could reveal what went wrong and whether anyone tampered with the devices. Prominent technical experts including Rice University computer science professor Dan Wallach and security guru Bruce Schneier have agreed to help conduct these tests. In addition to petitioning the county officials directly, EFF and VVF are calling on the public to let voting officials know that they would like to see truly independent testing of the machines used in this election. The counties in question are Broward and Palm Beach in Florida, Mahoning and Franklin in Ohio, Mercer and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania, Harris in Texas, and Bernalillo in New Mexico. Concerned citizens who live in these counties can contact their local voting officials or add their signatures to the EFF/VVF electronic petition. When 10,000 people have signed the petition, the groups will deliver a copy to the officials in the target counties. " The election is over, but voters can still make a difference for our democracy, " said EFF Legal Director Cindy Cohn. " Asking that these machines be tested independently is a crucial first step. " VVF Executive Director Will Doherty added, " We now have a chance for qualified voting technology experts to help remedy the problems we documented with paperless e-voting machines in the 2004 election.

While I am not that familiar with your elections, I am all too familiar with ours and the funny thing is, that many here see our election as being fraudulent. Perhaps, you should state to our out going Secretary of State that you see our elections as being fraudulent and that you reject the results of it. Sincerely, Mrs. Mary MacElveen Sound Beach, NY 11789 PS: This letter to you is being circulated around the Internet and to those within our media. .....................................

We, the undersigned, request that our elected representatives act in accordance with the Constitution of the United States of America in a legal, impartial and expedient manner for an open hearing before the people of the United States and if such wrongdoing, illegal practices, manipulation of voting records or processes is of such a nature to indicate egregious or extensive tampering, alteration or misappropriation of the voting process that the violators be brought to justice and remedies, potentially including a nationwide audit, recall, recount or new election be imposed by your bodies. We the undersigned hereby petition all members of the Congress of the United States of America; all Senators and Members of the House of Representatives. The signers of this Petition calls on congress to immediately and without delay open a joint investigation into potential wrongdoing in the Presidential Election of 2004, specifically to investigate the potential of voting machine manipulation or purposeful malfunction, especially electronic voting machines manufactured and supplied by Diebold, Inc.; Electronic Systems & Software (ES & S); Sequoia Voting Systems, and others, and also to identify and investigate all allegations of improper conduct by election officials, workers, observers, challengers and operatives and employees of both major parties concerning the voting process including intimidation, dissemination of improper information, manipulation of registration records, improper handling of actual voting ballots and, in general, any and all potential improprieties which could have led to improper or inaccurate election results. We the people demand that Congress not limit such inquiries and expect such inquiries not be limited to any particular state, precinct or district but strive to examine the voting process in any and all areas in which there is even the slightest indication of impropriety, We feel it is our patriotic duty to request such action from you, our elected officials, and your duty to respond in a responsible manner. Computers are inherently subject to programming error, equipment malfunction and malicious tampering. Paperless electronic voting machines make it impossible to safeguard the integrity of the vote. Petition your Congressman to void a rigged election now. Take the time to below and sign the petition. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/636288161 Bay Point School is a juvenile correctional facility in the Miami area. Information has been given to the Washington Post, the Miami Herald, BlackBoxVoting.org, VoteFraud.org and CommonDreams.org that the Miami school is a suspected training ground in computer science and programming for juvenile delinquents who have trained in the art of manipulating electronic voting, without a true audit trail. It is believed that this activity is taking place not only there but also in several schools like the aforementioned one nationwide. If true, then Bay Point School could be the Florida connection. " It is possible as many as six states election results have been altered by recruits from this school. http://rense.com/general59/FLORID.HTM http://www.nytimes.com/2004/11/14/opinion/14sun1.html Jeff Fisher through a confidential informant alleges that the school has direct connections with Joseph Klock, and that a professor at Key College in Dania Beach, Florida and formally of Bay Point School informed him that his loyalty to Klock is more important than the truth about how the 2000 election was manipulated, and how it is possible for a repeat to occur in the upcoming November general election. Mel Sembler, a powerful fundraiser for the Bush Campaign in Florida, is someone who has knowledge of the activities at Bay Point College. We are sure the talented people of the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune and the Miami Herald will release additional details in the upcoming days. Mel Sembler is Ambassador to Italy and a principal in several drug treatment facilities that are under investigation for gross mismanagement. Joseph Klock, an attorney who facilitated the release of the professor's son from an abusive treatment center was, coincidentally, the attorney for Congresswoman Katherine Harris who was the Secretary of State during the contested 2000 Florida recount which helped put George W. Bush in the White House. State's evidence is being given to the FBI on 11/08/04 Everyone must demand a National Revote for all races (local, state and federal) due to their Voting Rights being violated by electronic manipulation on November 2, 2004 and/or during the early voting time allotment. The Electoral College makes the final decision on which the next President of the United States will be. We must be vigilant and act now as our founding fathers did against King George III. You must contact the following people to ensure that the United States remains a constitutional republic (governed by the people) and not a country that can be controlled by computer programming.
