Is there a site that has Election Law for Dummies that simplifies it for

[blm]

those who don't have the time or are just not interested in studying the many details?

Does the DNC have anything accessible?

1. I too would like a simple 3-4 page article or something similar

to give to my right wing mother who is finally showing interest in the issue of election fraud, election irregularities & voter disenfranchisement. I made progress with her by not claiming that the election was stolen, but by apealing to her sense of fair elections & the opportunity for all voters to vote. The voter disenfranchisement issue has probably had more impact on her than the other facets of this issue. She is poor & knows she is disposable in this world of money. She is finally realizing that she is a perfect target for disenfranchisement.

2. I appealed to a Repub sister with that same approach.

I appealed to her sense of fairness and that the machines were unconstitutional because they could not record anything that assured a recount by hand if necessary.

3. I don't know if they have exactly what you're looking for, but

Voters Unite! is a very informative organization, and I believe you will find some useful information there:

4. Good site.

Thank you! The 'favorites' column on the right has some great links.

:thumbsup:

5. Thanks - maybe the DNC can

see a need and give us a bullet point rundown of useful information for blog and forum posters.

6. Kick - because information and facts are needed before claims are made.

7. Claims? What claims are being made?

Everything is fine. History shows that the parties are as honest as can be, and that they hold the voting process that gives them power in the highest regard.

Nothing to see here, move along.

8. heheh.... I mean from those unfamiliar with election law who

think they have the answers when their answers would result in someone going to jail.

See, people are under the mistaken illusion that Dems can get away with the same election crimes committed by Republicans.

9. So, the claim is that repukes have a leg up?

Ballderdash! Just because they own the machines (the pukes do) and the dems don't, doesn't mean that the Dems are at a disadvantage. Heck, we Dems are the majority. That levels the playing field.

As people here tell me all the time, "Just ignore the machines and concentrate on the strategy", because, it seems, we Dems can't do both.

Maybe they are right, huh, have you ever considered that, miss smarty pants?

That we can't walk and chew gum at the same time?

10. Heh - I like your spirit.

In this case, it's more about election law regarding how and when donated money can be spent.
