Has anyone thought to hit the Carter commission with "public knowledge"...
and it would be embarrassing for them not to include it.

The fact that all of the public hearings on voting irregularities and all subsequent information has been published, could be used to hammer at them until they yield to it.

They won't even look at a public 102 page document that was the result of the inquiry.

I don't think this is out in left field it is all public knowledge at this point. An action to not include any of it is an act against the freedom of people to question government. This is not an indirect act against freedom, this is a direct act against freedom.

Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

1. It's a wonderful idea
I have been upset ever since yesterday when I watched the whole sham. I even thought about a petition but I don't have the computer skills to pull it off. We have to do something! I am sure that all of you, like myself, cannot stand to see another election stolen from us.

2. Do you have a link to Conyers' report and the correct email
address to make sure Carter gets to see it?

5. Can you post what you sent?
I would like to send something also, and would like it to be similar to what others send.

Thanks

6. Definitely, we have to bombard them with information. I know Carter
was send the "Who got Glitched" dvd

We should also send them the report "Analysis of the 2004 Presidential Election Exit Poll Discrepancies", by the National Election Data Archive Project and contact the professors of this publication and ask them to testify at a hearing.

What bothers me though is that this commission is not going to hold another hearing until the end of June.

I would like to pressure the commission to hold another hearing reflecting just this issue.
..and now!

and we have to work the media to cover it.
