Alan Waldman, in today's Orlando Weekly, [guess he didn't get the `blackout memo'] reminds all of us:
"Election results are not final until electors vote on Dec. 12. There is still time to find the truth."

I am advocating a National Campaign: "Prove To Me My Vote Was Counted, Now"
Simple message:
American citizen, do you know if your vote was counted as you intended it to be.
American citizen, do you know that 30 % of you used a technology that has no verifiable record of how you intended to vote.
American citizen, would you put your money in a bank or use a credit card that didn't verify, penny by penny, the status of your account.
American citizen, pick up the phone and call your friends, your Congress representatives, your newspapers, your TV/radio stations, your President and ask `Prove to me my vote was counted the way I intended it to be; Just Prove it.'
Can we mobilize at dKos and all other responsible blogs and organizations like MoveOn, Common Cause, etc., to broadcast that message -- "Just Prove It."
Have them create ads, with appropriate imagery, and get them on during 'prime time' and 'early morning radio.'
Call/email, Oprah and Larry King and Olbermann and.....and, request that they take 5 min during their program and ask those questions just once.
We an get the vote counted, verifiably, now.
We can, if we want to.
This Is Our Nation, remember; It's time we start acting like we mean it.
Thank you.
