1. I'd rather see CBS run with it, but MSNBC is better than NO coverage..
Is there a law that says that State's Attorneys General HAVE to investigate reasonable claims of voter fraud? I seem to remember Bev saying they were required by law. If the amount of disclosure makes it likely that they DO know, are they legally responsible for LACK of follow up?

Most state laws usually have a provision that says officials are to make sure voting is secure, etc.

On edit:

Tape the show, send it to everyone who can do something about it.

Find out about the law in your state.

Local election officials are on the line, too.
