CONCERNED ABOUT ELECTRONIC BALLOTS FLOCK TO UNCOUNTED SCREENING
By Christine Anne Piesyk | December 8, 2007


The Clarksville screening of UnCounted, a film targeting issues in electronic voting, drew fifty people to the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Friday evening, filling the screening room to capacity for this special event. The film’s producer, Patricia Earnhardt, and activist Bernie Ellis, addressed the group and fielded questions about the film and the increasing controversy over the accuracy and security of electronic voting machines.




Producers describe UnCounted as “an explosive documentary that shows how the election fraud that changed the outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater fraud in 2006 — and now looms as an unbridled threat to the outcome of the 2008 election. This controversial film examines…how easy it is to change election outcomes and undermine election integrity…”

“There is still time to return to a verifiable system for the 2008 presidential election,” Ellis said. Ellis, (at left with producer Patricia Earnhardt), is featured in this film. He noted that when issues arose with the e-machines in Maryland, the Republican governor of that state dumped the machines in favor of paper ballots in just seven weeks to guarantee the “integrity” of the election.

14. Yea Bernie!!
Bernie has been a great supporter of UNCOUNTED from the beginning of our journey nearly three years ago. He is a warrior - and he's moving UNCOUNTED across the state of Tennessee to bring attention to our state laws that allow paper electronic voting machines.

We also start screening our film in theaters and other venues across the country, beginning in January. So far, in the one short month since our DVD's release, people from more than 35+ states and 10 countries have bought our film on DVD. If you want to do the same (and sorry for shameless promotion - but I really want people to see this film), you can go to www.UncountedTheMovie.com

Go Bernie go!!!

22. My mom is fine
My mom is doing fine, Susan. Thanks for asking. Both her car and the other car were totaled - but she just had bruises. She's pretty tough at 93 years old. I hated to miss the screening - but glad to see it was such a success!

19. Aw shucks, MelissaB. You shouldn't have ...
I've been so busy -- someone just sent me a link to this thread. I so appreciate your long-standing support.

Believe me, it is easier to fight without one hand tied behind me.

Freedom ain't free --- in fact, it's priceless.
