Here is a great video that is now being passed around about recording election problems (outside) with video cameras. Do you agree that it would be good to pass this on to 17,000 on my lists? Is there a message you would like me to send with it? I think many people will be attracted to doing this that will not be willing to sit inside all day taking notes, especially when you must make prior arrangements to be a pollwatcher.
Do you feel this would be an important and useful thing to do? Is someone from VotePA Pollworkers for Democracy or Verified Voting in touch with these people so information can be shared?

Telling the story
In 2000 and 2004, problems plagued the polls in different parts of the country: long lines, eligible voters turned away, voter intimidation, misallocation and malfunctioning of voting equipment. They were underreported on Election Day. Days and weeks later, a more complete picture of voter disenfranchisement emerged-but it was too late. The elections were over and the media had moved on. Starting this election, citizen journalists-people like you and I-will document problems as they occur. We'll play them online, spread word through blogs and partner websites, doing our part to make sure the full story of our elections is told.
