While the hot issues of the day continue to garner much of our attention (and deservedly so,) it is very important that we continue to pay attention to and fight for fair and verifiable election procedures across the country if we are truly serious about protecting our democracy. There are many reasons to be concerned, and here's a new one, once again brought to light by Bev Harris and crew at Black Box Voting. If you're not rolling your eyes, there's more on the flip (and I apologize...my HTML skills suck, so please be kind): Read More

This is important. I have commented before on keeping electoral reform in the forefront of our concerns. I have also thought that it seems a no-brainer to get Jimmy Carter involved, as he is one of the world's leading election authorities through the Carter Center. Of course, Republicans won't listen to even a beloved Democrat without Republican input. That is exactly what American University's Center for Democracy and Election Management is planning to do. Provided this can capture the attention it deserves, this effort could be a huge push forward to getting true electoral reform to the forefront of the debate.

The timing couldn't be more symbolic. I just received this email in response to an email I sent last week to Dianne Feinstein. I sent the same correspondence to Barbara Boxer. Today, I see Boxer courageously leading in the joint session. And then, this outdated, out-of-touch response. Although I am a long-time resident of San Francisco, I've never been especially fond of Feinstein, particularly this past year when she took the "too much too soon" stance regarding gay marriage, which merely echoed her stances back when she was mayor.
