The Formula --
{Maps}+{News}+{Contact Info}=Netroots Action
When we know where problems are, we can address them effectively.
With this formula in mind, we launch NetrootsNetworkNow
featuring a daily map point, worthy of your consideration and action.
Each day, we will post a new map marker relevant to election
integrity, voter empowerment, government corruption, government waste,
or developing stories. Contained in the info bubble are links to the
story/sources, video(when available), audio (when available), and the
contact information for the elected official responsible (or
organization). So, you can call, write, or fax your feelings on the
issue to the right person.
Today's NetrootsNetworkNow entry:
A suit alleging electronic vote fraud on the part of a Judge and an
Elections Commissioner was filed by former County Judge Kenneth Davis
and Precinct #4 candidate Joe Daniel in connection with the November
general election.
The lawsuit alleges that the iVotronic election-voting machines
provided to the county by Elections Systems and Software (ES&S) were
programmed so that they flipped every 10th vote for a Democrat to a
Republican, regardless of the acts of the voters, which resulted in an
error in the vote total. It also alleges that the ES&S software wasn't
certified by the Secretary of State's office at the time of the
election, and computer logs from the county's Unity Systems Elections
Reporting Manager computer were illegally altered. Have an opinion?
Call the Texas Secretary of State and tell them so! Executive
