WHAT WENT WRONG IN OHIO revisited
Edited on Thu Jun-30-05 01:27 PM by paineinthearse
On May 27, Rep. John Conyers blogged the following:

http://www.conyersblog.us/default.htm



Signed Copies of Conyers Report
What Went Wrong in Ohio?

As regular readers of this blog know, I have never asked for a contribution on it. Today, I am compelled to break that pristine record. Raising money is an unfortunate reality of politics and, when you do not side with corporations and other special interests on legislation, you turn to ordinary Americans for help.

Today, I ask for your help in raising money for my re-election campaign and to help elect other Democrats so that we can end Republican rule of the House of Representatives, one party rule in Washington, and finally hold this Administration accountable.

For every $50 contribution, I will send you a copy of What Went Wrong in Ohio? http://www.academychicago.com/conyers.html, signed by me, and recently published by the Academy Chicago Publishers. I do not make a penny off the sales of this book and this publication house published the book more as a public service than a money making venture. They did a great job. The book has an amazing forward by Gore Vidal and the text of my Ohio report.


Many of us enthusiasictly responded to the call for DU to support Rep. Conyers' efforts - see http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=1814747

My signed copy arrived a few days ago and I finished it yesterday. Rep. Conyers lays out the case how the 2004 Presidential election was yet again stolen by the GOP and its operatives. It is a MUST READ for all! It gives me more reason to work to make John Conyers chair of the House Judiciary Committee for the 110th Congress.

3. I'm looking forward to receiving my copy (happily, he had so many to sign
that it's taking awhile to catch up!).

John Conyers is a true-blue American hero (and he must have one helluva staff to keep up with him!).

9. INFO on Votergate
LINK: www.votergate.tv

PRODUCTION CREDITS:
Produced by Simon Ardizzone, Russell Michaels, and Robert Carrillo Cohen

In association with Teale Productions and Public Interest Pictures

These guys are great... they produced the "Special Edition" of Votergate pre-election and distributed it via the web. This film brought a lot of people into the movement, and it is STILL one of the best ways to explain the issues with paperless DRE voting machines. You can show Votergate to your Grandmother and she will "get it".

Simon Ardizzone, Russ Michaels, and Robert Cohen are working on a 90 minute feature-length version with added footage including Ohio, January 6, and other events. WATCH FOR IT!

6. January 6th Vote Fraud Rally Video
On January 6th bus loads of patriots from Ohio held a rally on Capital Hill to "call for" the presidential election to NOT be certified in Ohio and other key states.

Unlike when the 2000 presidential vote was tampered with; this time members of both the House & Senate stood up to challenge the integrity of the election in Ohio.

Learn what was wrong in Ohio from Jesse Jackson, David Cobb, Clint Curtis, Asa Gordon and Wil b.

11. I received my copy
And though I haven't yet been able to finish reading it all, it is a very concise and compelling report. A very easy and quick read with with meticulous facts and figures. If I hadn't had a few other things to do, I'm sure I would have read it from cover-to-cover in one sitting.
