Redefeat Bush
While most of us have gotten over the previous election, even moving past both the four stages of mourning and the drunken depressed stupor stage, there are some people out there still fighting. Yesterday a rally was held in front of Sen. Barbara Boxer’s San Francisco office urging her to stand up and challenge the election results because of all the charges of fraud and disenfranchisement in Ohio. Tomorrow, members of congress will join together to certify the vote and already several House Democrats, including ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee John Conyers, have said they will try and contest the counting of the Ohio electors. Conyers and others are hoping to talk other Democratic members of congress, including Barbara Boxer, to join in. To help their cause, Conyer’s committee today issued a report detailing all of the problems in the election. As for John Kerry, who as a Senator is supposed to vote on all this, he decided that he’d rather duck bullets and bombs in the Middle East than vote for his defeat.
Rallies are being called throughout the day tomorrow, including several large ones in D.C., and we can bet your bottom dollar that there’ll be some sort of rally here. Meanwhile, people are being urged to call or e-mail their local politician and urge them to vote against the election. Already, the Berkeley city council has passed a resolution (at the urging of the cities Peace and Justice Commission) calling for an investigation into voter fraud (hey? Where’s our Board of Supervisors on this? We can’t let Berkeley outdo us!). For information on the rallies, check out Ohio Election Fraud and to get all the latest in both the battle contesting the election and all the evidence of voter fraud, check out the Votergate Resource Center.
