Pax Christi USA National Election Monitoring Strategy
Every Vote, Every Voter Counts

Pax Christi USA, the national Catholic peace movement, announced that it will bring international election monitors to Florida to monitor the upcoming Presidential elections in November.

At a press conference across from the Florida Supreme Court building in Tallahassee on Monday, March 8, Pax Christi USA Executive Director Dave Robinson said that the purpose of the election monitors is to ensure that every vote and every voter is counted in 2004.

"Following the 2000 elections, when so many, especially people of color and the poor, were denied participation in our common life as a nation, when their basic rights were denied and they were treated without respect, we are obligated to assure that such a situation does not repeat itself," Robinson said. "We believe that an election watched by 'the eyes of the world' is an important component in assuring a fair and just election."

1. oh heavens what have we come to? We need international

election monitors?? Good Grief, but I, for one, am glad they're doing it.

2. Yes, we need accountability

[Crowdance]

3. Religious groups monitoring our elections?

I'd like to see the UN come in. Maybe Jimmy Carter could arrange it?

[No2W2004]

5. I was wondering

how to get the UN involved in monitoring the election...

7. A religious person getting our elections monitored by the UN?

:eyes:

[Crowdance]

8. Persons/groups, monitoring/participating

very, very different--and I think you know that. :eyes: :eyes:

[LoZoccolo]

4. I think people should make sure ahead of time...

...that they're still on the rolls. Serious. Call every week or so and make sure you're still on.

[Warpy]

6. Let's hope careful exit polling

...is a big part of this monitoring. Only if the numbers are wildly different will we know Florida has been Diebolded.

10. But the Busheviks have already got control of Exit Polling

The VNS is gone (after it's "convenient" disappearence in 2002), and that was controlled by multiple, 5 or 6 organizations simultaneously.

Hard to control.

That's gone, and now the Exit Polling is now run by the Corrupted, Bushevik-infested AP, but one organization and an untrustworthy one, at that.

The easier to control.

From here on out, on "Election" eve in Imperial Amerika, all Exit Polls will agree 100% with all Diebold results.

Watch for it.

God, I HATE living in the "Animal Farm" (as Orwell envisioned it)!

I want my fucking Free Country back you Imperial Fucks!

9. This is great news!

I wish it was the UN or Carter's group, but any international monitoring is great.

[checks-n-balances]

11. The only thing I wish more is monitoring of all 50 states by whomever is

trustworthy! The U.N., Carter, whomever. I have a feeling that if all eyes are averted away from the other 49, rethugs will just do their demonic work elsewhere.

We had better especially keep our eyes on the swing states.

12. Yes, send monitors

and international press people. Let's see if democracy works.
