FROM CALIF. SENATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE CHAIRPERSON BOWEN:

"We are going to need an enormous amount of people power in the next
couple of weeks. Together we can change this whole pathetic mess.
Let's stand up for our democracy RIGHT NOW."

"Email is great because it is easy for us to log and report -- and we can

you will save my staff a great deal of time logging calls, and you know
what kind work we have to do right now. You can always call and
fax later!"

Debra Bowen

administrative passwords and election results.)
