From Common Cause NC & For All NC
Dear fellow Activists,
As all of you know, we have been working our heads off to get the
original version of S223 passed in the North Carolina General Assembly.
Common Cause is offering their help - all we need you to do is please
sign this petition, get your family members to sign it, and ask your
email friends to please sign and pass this on ASAP. Post on sympathetic
list serves and message boards. Thank you so much! Please see
instructions below.
Sincerely yours,

SB223 is the Public Confidence in Elections Bill (providing verifiable
paper trail ballots) and needs lots of support right now to pass the
Senate.
Frustrations are rising in Raleigh. Lawmakers remain unable to reach a
budget agreement. With many committee meetings cancelled, action is
stalled on many bills, including SB 223,1 the Public Confidence in
Elections proposal.
We can't idly sit back and watch. You joined more than 800 residents
of North Carolina in signing the Confidence in Voting Bill petition.
Lawmakers are feeling the pressure, but we must urge them to resolve this
stalemate and get the business of the state done, including passing SB
223. We can only do this by getting others involved. Please let your
friends, family and co-workers in North Carolina know about the
importance of this bill:

Using this form makes telling your friends easier; we need their
support to show lawmakers that we haven't forgotten about SB 223. If each of
you gets 10 people to sign up, we would be able to present lawmakers
with over 8,000 names of people who demand election reform in North
Carolina. This would make quite a statement!
By telling other residents of North Carolina about the petition, you
are helping to create the groundswell we will need to get SB 223 passed.
You can emphasize to legislators the importance of passing legislation
requiring voter verified paper ballots in North Carolina. Please take
a moment right now and get 10 friends involved - it really makes a
difference.
Thank you for all you do for Common Cause North Carolina.
Sincerely,
Bob Phillips
