Time to put it behind us by putting it in front of us. IMHO the dems lied to us when they said "never again". They had four years to fix it. Now that it is over and all the problems come to light one can go back and deduce pathetically little was done. Now it's our turn.
Soon we will release what will become Colorado’s Affirmative action response to the electoral debacle. I believe it will be the model for the nation. We have a number of groups in a number of states looking at our language. Our initiative covers all the bases. We viewed all the tactics being put to use by the republicans, with particular emphasis on the final ten points released at the end of the Conyers Report (Preserving Democracy – What Went Wrong in Ohio) on what occurred in Ohio. No paper trail, illegal, same day registration, the law. Party heads paid or volunteer can’t hold a position in election processes. Equipment, must be certified under strict guidelines . It creates a Commission that is charged with the responsibility of maintaining fair elections by the strict guidelines set out in the Act, The Independent Elections Commission. The Commission is charged with regulating such matters as number of booths per precinct and procedures governing the conduct of poll workers. The Initiative creates two class 3 felonies for those who would attempt to disenfranchise voters by any means and a conspiracy statute when two or more commit an act in furtherance, is a class 2 felony. The initiative gives broad public investigative powers including the right to subpoena and compel testimony, and the requirement to promulgate administrative rules for it’s conduct under The Administrative Procedures Act. The Act will pretty much dump everything added in the HAVA (Help America Vote Act) and replaces it with something that will actually count every vote. We intend to create a national agenda by simultaneous release of multiple state initiatives with the same goal. Reform democracy. The politicians aren't going to do what we will do. Frankly, there is no other way.
