1. Dem Congressional Campaign Committee has set up 'Resultron' - - -
An email from the DCCC today:

Hey there.

Tomorrow night you have a multitude of choices for election coverage. Fox News will be providing "fair and balanced" coverage. Jon Stewart will be chewing on Tucker Carlson's bow tie on Comedy Central. And, most importantly, tomorrow night the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is firing up RESULTRON — your best option for getting live updates from dozens of key races around the country.

http://www.democraticaction.org/results/index.html

It's been quite the chore getting RESULTRON set up this week — we've carted in thousands of pounds of hanging chads from the 2000 election that we'll burn to power it through the night Tuesday. We have vacuum tubes and punch cards all over the floor and several top-of-the-line Pentium 286 and Apple IIEs to help tally the massive amount of data from the dozens of targeted key races. All told, with this impressive technology behind us, we'll be unmatched in our election coverage.

In addition to the RESULTRON website, you can also subscribe for RSS feeds or sign up to receive text message updates on your cell phone. Use RESULTRON to keep track of the most-watched Congressional races, and be the first on your block to know who will have control of the House for the next two years (hint: the winning party begins with 'D'):

On Election Day, in addition to RESULTRON, the DCCC will have thousands of volunteers around the country — driving people to the polls, monitoring polling places, making last-minute phone calls — doing everything we can to ensure that people vote and that those votes are counted.

Since there can be so many unexpected twists and turns on November 2 (a van taking people to the polls breaks down and we have to rent another one, a few thousand more fliers need to be printed up for a critical race), anything you can contribute RIGHT NOW will be put to good use. If you can make one last donation, consider doing it now:
https://secure.dccc.org/default/aspx?id=resultronemail

So many close races, and so much at stake — no need to rely on Fox "News" — now you have RESULTRON. Visit the web site. Subscribe to RSS feeds. Receive updates on your cell phone. These are the races that will determine the majority. Bookmark the site now: http://www.democraticaction.org/results/index.html

RESULTRONY yours,


Steve Olson
