These City Council Members are not yet sponsoring Res. 131 and Res. 228 (as of 8/12/06).  They need constituent calls, emails, faxes and letters. Most know the issue, so just tell them who you are, and request their support.

 

What to say: "Please sponsor Res 131 for paper ballots/optical scanners instead of electronic voting, & Res 228 for public testing of new voting machines - let's see them work before we spend $100 million!"

 

Resolution 228 will come to a vote in the City Council meeting on Aug 16. There will be a press conference at 2 PM on the City Hall Steps. All supporters are urged to attend. Please RSVP to admin@wheresthepaper.org   if you will attend.
