Host an UNCOUNTED House Party
Help PDA Grow and Fix Our Broken Elections


Since 2004, PDA has been at the forefront of the election integrity issue--working with PDA advisory board member Representative John Conyers to expose the election irregularities of 2004, monitoring the vote in 2006, campaigning to ban the use of electronic voting machines, and fighting to establish paper as the official ballot of record. Now, PDA is taking their efforts one step further and partnering with us to organize screenings of our film, UNCOUNTED: The New Math of American Elections, in cities across America. UNCOUNTED hones in on the insidious election integrity issues--already recognized by PDA--and holds them up as the single most critical issue facing our democracy.

The key to bringing a new integrity to our election process is to spread the word that as long as millions of votes go uncounted in every major election, then our democracy itself is in peril. Since mid-January we've been sounding that alarm with our film and have organized theatrical showings of UNCOUNTED in cities across the county. These screenings often attract hundreds of people in a single night who, after seeing our film, become instantly engaged and motivated to do what they can to solve the systemic problems inherent in our election process.

We now look forward to conducting screenings in partnership with members of PDA, who have been working hard on election integrity issues in their communities. In the past, these screenings have proven to be a great opportunity for a host group to offer specific ways to help clean up our elections and for the host group to gain enthusiastic members ready to help them in their efforts. It's a win-win for everyone.

I cannot thank PDA enough for working with us to shine some much-needed light on this issue in this extremely important election year. After all, if our vote doesn't count, then nothing else really matters.



Together, we can get this one right.

To purchase your own "Uncounted" DVD, click here (a portion of sales will go towards PDA).

If you want to organize a screening of "UNCOUNTED," please email Vin Gopal at: houseparties@pdamerica.org.

UNCOUNTED is an explosive new documentary that shows how the election fraud that changed the outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater fraud in 2006--and now looms as an unbridled threat to the outcome of the 2008 election.

UNCOUNTED is a wakeup call to all Americans. Beyond increasing public awareness, the film inspires greater citizen involvement in fixing a broken electoral system. See the trailer.
