EAH: HELP make the Election Assessment Hearing a BIG success!
DUers:

Please help the Election Assessment Hearing have a big impact!


1) Spread the word to the world (info about the hearing is on http://www.electionassessment.org)


2) Attend and support the hearing in Houston on June 29th

and/or

3) Crack your piggy bank and make a donation through Paypal at http://www.electionassessment.org
to help (my piggy bank has been drained and there are still people needing help to come and testify and there is PR to do). I need to raise $2,000.00 ASAP!

PLEASE HELP HOWEVER YOU CAN!

Kip

7. Will there be streaming video or archived footage?
The Voter Confidence Committee of Humboldt County, CA is having an event the evening of the 29th. See the event notice here:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x380454

Rather than Votergate, I would love to show footage from EAH, specifically David Cobb talking about the Voter Confidence Resolution. Can this happen?

8. Sorry, Guv... No streaming video
The meeting hall has no Internet connection nor phone line available. We will have 6 hours of professional quality video but not available for download on the 29th.

17. Kip, please see my post at
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x381183

Basically, it's this:

"This whole phony 'commission' has emerged from American University. In Houston, Rice University facilities will be used to webcast it on 6/30. Are there no STUDENTS at either place who want the real news? (--or dissenting faculty?).

"Houston organizers, I think this is worth a call to Rice U. student journalism, media and progressive political clubs, and maybe some student there will email other students, and get something going. It seems a natural for a student broadcast.

"American U. students should also be contacted. But AU is apparently not directly involved in Houston or the webcast of the phony 'hearing' of this phony "commission" on June 30."

12. Pacifica Radio's Houston station might have something
I'm not sure what their coverage will entail, but I see that they do have streaming audio at their website:

http://houston.kpft.org/site/PageServer

Their local news is on at 6:30 p.m., which is 4:30 here in California. They'll have a reporter at the EAH. I don't know if any of the hearing will be broadcast live or not, but I imagine it will at least be on their local news, if not Free Speech Radio News nationally.

14. Thanks emlev, I was really hoping for video to show at our event
ask yourself this: "what will it take to make the phrase 'peaceful revolution' socially acceptable?"

now ask somebody else

19. Good Luck with the Hearing!
And if any speaker at the Hearing would like to come to Ohio July 5th to speak prior to the Hocking County (Ohio) BOE meeting, let emlev know and she knows how to contact me. We don't have funds for travel expenses, etc., but would be very appreciative to anyone who could make it.

Very glad this action is being taken by all involved and hope the Hearing is a success!

22. Hey, Everybody! Am on the ground here in Houston...
...for the EAH...Kip and his crew are working like crazy on this. Look at the line-up of presenters... http://www.electionassessment.org He has a wonderful group assembled here -- in a few hours they will testify and more word will get out about what is wrong with our elections!

Please help spread the word about this... there are several other ways you can help too. One thing people could do is donating to help cover the expense. And if you are within travel distance of Houston, COME to the hearing! And keep this KICKED!

You can also support Velvet Revolution's call to get the word out http://www.velvetrevolution.us/mailing.php?Mailing=0A54007D500061C0E1332

THANK YOU ALL -- Please Hold a good thought for us in Houston today!
