Did you encounter problems in the polling place today?

Let us know. Please post your report on our website,
the "Illinois Election-Problems Clearinghouse,"
http://ballot-integrity.org/blog

Your report will become a valuable contribution to the
public record. When you post your report, it will be
immediately published on the Internet, for access by
all members of the public.

No other service like this exists for the Chicago
metropolitan area. If you want to ensure that your
personal report gets published, this is the place!

We are seeking reports on any and all types of problems,
from shortage of pens, to paper jams, to non-functional
equipment, to improper behavior by voters or other
participants.

It's easy to check out the latest reports and to submit
your own. Visit and see!

Public "Clearinghouse" for Chicago, Cook County Election Problems

[Press release. Please Forward.]

An Internet website has been launched to serve as
a public "clearinghouse" for citizens' reports of
election problems in Chicago and Cook County.

Citizens can upload their first-hand reports and see
them published immediately on the website.

The website is at http://ballot-integrity.org/blog

For urgent problems, the website will guide citizens
to the appropriate hotline, staffed by human operators.

The website invites reports of all problems, including
those encountered during early voting and absentee voting.

Directions for publishing audio and video records of
problems are also provided.

Recommendations for enhancing the site and its information
are welcome.

The blog is the creation of the Illinois Ballot Integrity
Project, a not-for-profit, non-partisan civic organization
dedicated to the correction of election system deficiencies
and to ensuring fair, accurate, and completely transparent
elections.
