Republican voter fraud - who can we pressure to get on national media?
I keep hearing reports (more was just on AAR) about companies and election officials all over the country destroying or invalidating voter registration. Yet I have not heard anything about this on national media (granted, I don't watch much cable/national news anymore).

Is there any centralized effort yet to document reports about this? How can we get this upstream to major media outlets? Can we put enough together to get Salon.com or someone equivalent to take off with it?

Thanks!

1. Found a website last night
I think it was www.klastv.com. I copied the report and sent it to Keith Olbermann and Lou Dobbs. We'll see if anything comes of it.

2. Bob Herbert at the NY Times
has done several stories on voter fraud and suppression. He'd probably be amenable to doing more.

6. If they weren't printed in the last week or so
you have to pay to access them. I did a google search on "Bob Herbert" and "vote" and came up with these links.
