Don't end up like Florida in 2000: Some things you can do (time sensitive)

Florida was the key to the election disaster in 2000. Long before the "hanging-chad" fiasco, and the blatant dereliction of duty committed by Justice Scalia (he didn't recuse himself) and others, thousands of voters in Florida were erroneously scrubbed from the voter rolls, with data that was 90-percent wrong.

Now that we have the "Help America Vote" act, the stage is set for a debacle that will make what happened in Florida look like nothing.

There are two bills on the floor now that are designed to help prevent this: HR2239 and HR4250.

Please urge your elected officials to support these bills.

You can reach your congressmen and senators at http://congress.org/congressorg/officials/congress/
Please consider sending them a letter such as this:

"Dear Sir.

Please do your part to help ensure that no-one is prevented from voting because of erroneous voter-roll purging. Please co-sponsor HR2239 and HR4250.
Sincerely, [your name]
"

The main switchboard for the House of Representatives is at: 202-224-3121

Among the obstacles to this is Congressman Ney from Ohio. He is blocking this legislation from coming to a vote. He is head of the administration committee, so people from other states should contact him too. Anyone in Ohio would do well to contact him, of course.

Please send him a message (with a subject like "Please stop blocking HR2239 and HR4250".") such as:

"Dear Congressman Ney,

Please stop blocking legislation that is designed to ensure that no-one is prevented from voting because of erroneous voter-roll purging. Please enable voting on HR2239 and HR4250.

Sincerely

[your name]"

Bob Ney
