Breaking News!
The Kerry campaign has joined the Greens/Libertarians action in Delaware county, OH. Now is the time to make your impact felt more than ever.

Should Mr. Kerry himself call for an immediate recount to begin in Ohio?
Why don't you tell the Kerry campaign, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) where you stand? Here, we'll make it easy for you. All you have to do is fill in one form now and with one click we will send your personal message to all of the above. And at the same we will format an invitation you can send to the email addresses of everyone else you know with just one additional easy click. The issue is whether there is enough evidence of irregularities to challenge or investigate the results of the counts. Some claim that the exit polls are disproportionately out of line only in areas where computerized counting was utililized, and that unless a recount is started now, the clock will simply be run out. Should Mr. Kerry as the only person with real "standing" join in the call for a recount to begin immediately now that a judge in Ohio has ruled third parties have no standing to demand early action? Just a few simple words from you mean more than any form letter can. Please read the question carefully to make sure your vote matches your comments. If you think we should leave things as they are, vote "no", otherwise if you believe we should take a stand now and challenge the results, then vote "yes".

Mission Statement:
Our democracy is only as strong as the participation of the people. Do your representatives only hear from you once every two or four years, assuming you vote at all? There are members of Congress who publicly bemoan the fact that they don't hear from more of their constituents more often. Our leaders are our generals in the political arena, but we are their troops. They can't do battle for us against opposing interests without being able to demonstrate our ongoing support. The People's Email Network is constructed to facilitate communication with our elected officials. By your participation you can establish that you are a voter who will call your government to account at each successive election. Your views do count. They will be heard. And most importantly, when you cast your votes in the section above, be sure to use the ground-breaking input functions of our website to also submit the email addresses of everyone you know. In this way we can together mobilize the entire country to speak in the loudest possible voice.
