>===========================================
>TAKE ACTION DEC. 10 – 13, 2004:
>Defend the Recounts! Demand Election Reform!
>
>PROTEST ELECTION VIOLATIONS IN STATE CAPITOLS:
>THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES ON 12/13
>===========================================
>
>On Monday, December 13, the members of the 
>Electoral College will meet in every state 
>capitol to cast their votes to elect the 
>President and Vice-President of the United 
>States. We call on local groups to protest and 
>make visible the many voting rights violations 
>and election irregularities which call into 
>question the integrity of the 2004 election – 
>and to demand real reforms to protect, extend, 
>and deepen democracy.
>
>HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN DO:
>
>1 - Organize protests in the days leading up to 
>the Dec. 13 meeting of the Electoral College, 
>and on December 13 itself:
>
>   * Demand that every vote be verified and 
>counted in all states before the Electors cast 
>their votes!
>
>   * Call for the implementation of the Voter 
>Bill of Rights 
>(http://www.Nov3.US/billofrights), which details 
>eleven vital election reforms, including the 
>abolition of the electoral college, a guarantee 
>of a voter-verified paper trail for all voting 
>machines, replacement of partisan oversight of 
>elections with nonpartisan election commissions 
>and prevention of lawless vote suppression and 
>voter intimidation. Deliver the Voter Bill of 
>Rights to your members of Congress and demand 
>their support for these reforms.
>
>2 - Contact your state’s Electors to see if you 
>can convince one or more of them to join you at 
>the protest to express their concerns about the 
>state of our democracy. A list of your state’s 
>Electors should be available on your state’s 
>secretary of state website, or with your state’s 
>election board.
>
>3 - Alert local media, using the Electoral 
>College vote as a news hook. We need to break 
>through the media whitewash of the 
>disenfranchisement, vote suppression and fraud 
>that occurred in this election.
>
>4 - List your protest events under “Directory of 
>Local Actions” at http://www.Nov3.US.
>
>This call to action is an initiative of the No 
>Stolen Elections! Campaign and is endorsed by 
>CODEPINK, United for Peace and Justice, 51 
>Capital March, and others. We are seeking 
>national co-sponsors. If your national 
>organization is willing to co-sponsor this call, 
>please contact us at ben at nov3.us
