Hello from VoteRescue Radio - Where Citizens Count, One Vote at a Time!
This Friday, September 19th, from 6 - 8 pm Central, we enthusiastically welcome four very important guests: DOROTHY FADIMAN,
producer and director of the excellent film on our current election
crisis, "Stealing America, Vote by Vote", which will be showing here in
Austin, Texas from September 19th through the 25th at the Regal Arbor
Cinema at 9828 Great Hills Trail. Dorothy will be joined by SALLY CASTLEMAN, co-founder of Election Defense Alliance (EDA) who has been working with Dorothy to promote this very important film.
AND: in our first hour, we welcome what will no doubt be a fascinating interview with "ANONYMOUS", an
election industry insider and author of the recently released book
"Cassandra Chanting - an Election Insider's Nightmare" which depicts
in page-turning novel form just how easily elections can be stolen
given the secret, proprietary nature of the voting machine industry and
how the very software that runs our election is shielded from review by
the public or even election officials. "Anonymous" will be joined by BREE BARTON,
the 23 year old editor who helped "Anonymous" with this novel, and in
the process, became very committed to helping sound the alarm about the
dangerous status of elections in our country.
MORE ON "Stealing America..." - OpEd News Election Editor Joan Brunwasser had this to say about "Stealing America: Vote by Vote": "...thanks
to Fadiman's artful efforts, we can clearly see what was meant to
remain hidden...STEALING AMERICA is a reasoned argument, a cry from the
heart, and a call to action. It cannot and should not be ignored."
"Flick Filospher" on "Stealing America: Vote by Vote": "...throwing
elections is nothing new, a point the film doesn't shy away from
making; what is new is the ease with which it is being done, the scale
on which it is happening, and the so-far-near-absolute apathy with
which it is being greeted by the electorate...any concerned citizen
should be outraged."
\
Dorothy Fadiman has been producing
media with a focus on social justice and human rights since 1976. Her
film subjects have ranged from progressive education in WHY DO THESE
KIDS LOVE SCHOOL? (produced with KTEH-TV) and progressive change for
women in some of the least developed villages of India in WOMAN BY
WOMAN: New Hope for the Villages of India (produced with KQED-TV) to a
three-film series on reporductive issues and a five-film series on AIDS
in Ethiopia including FROM RISK TO ACTION: Women and HIV/AIDS in
Ethiopia. Dorothy has won more than 50 major awards, including an
Emmy for a 1995 production, and an Oscar nomination for Best Short
Subject.
MORE ON "Cassandra Chanting": An Election Insiders Nightmare": A dramatic, frightening and enlightening fictional account of a plot to steal the 2008 U.S. presidential election, based on the experiences of an anonymous author who is a bona fide insider in the electoral process. The fast-paced story reveals several ways that voting machine company software engineers can corrupt voting computers, change election results before they are reported, reverse touch-screen votes and avoid detection by paper trails.
The author, who insists on anonymity, has been involved in the election world for some years. He (or she) has come into contact with computer scientists and public officials who have suggested numerous ways to miscount votes. He has worked with people inside and outside or government to solve the problems that so many understand truly exist. He has sought to mobilize Congress to actto no avail.

VoteRescue Radio 8/22: Rebroadcast, Steve Heller, Cliff Arnebeck |
|
|
|
Friday, 22 August 2008 08:52 |
|
Hello out there from Radioland - VoteRescue Radio - Where Citizens Count, One Vote at a Time!
Due to host travel, this
evening's show, August 22, from 6-8pm CDT, will be a rebroadcast of a
fantastic show from July 25th when our guests were STEVE HELLER and CLIFF ARNEBECK!
Though Steve Heller became an election integrity activist after the 2000 election debacle in Florida, he became known to legions of election protection activists as the "Diebold Whistle-blower" in 2004. While
working as a word processor at the Los Angeles office of the law firm
representing Diebold in California, Heller saw documents proving
Diebold was violating state election laws by knowingly peddling voting
machine software that had not received the state certification required
by law.
Faced
with a difficult moral dilemma -- either say nothing and respect
attorney-client privilege, or expose Diebold's criminal acts against
clean elections -- Steve chose to protect our elections, and thus our
Republic, by copying and releasing the documents to Bev Harris of Black
Box Voting, who then got the documents to the press and to California's
Secretary of State. Heller acknowledges that he committed a serious crime in breaking attorney-client privilege. But what is illegal is not always wrong.
Tune
in this evening to hear Steve's compelling story, the third interview
in our "whistleblower series" related to electronic voting - and learn
what the benefits ~ and consequences ~ were of his courageous act. His
case was featured in the documentary "Uncounted: The New Math of American Elections" by David Earnhardt, and the segment on his case has been posted to YouTube. http://www.uncountedthemovie.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkhXzW32Rrs . All of the press related to his case can be found here. http://www.hellerlegaldefensefund.com/
Steve Heller also guest-blogged on July 17th the press conference story which features our other guest on Friday, Cliff Arnebeck.
Columbus attorney Cliff Arnebeck, a national officer in the Alliance for Democracy, is the lead attorney for the plaintiffs in the case of King Lincoln Bronzeville v. Blackwell; Cliff announced on July 17th at a press conference that
he is filing a motion to "lift the stay in the case [and] proceed with
targeted discovery in order to help protect the integrity of the 2008
election."
This case has the potential to put some of the most powerful people in the country in jail, according to Arnebeck,
as he was joined by a well-respected, life-long Republican computer
security expert Stephen Spoonamore, who charged that the red flags seen
during Ohio's 2004 Presidential Election would have been cause for "a
fraud investigation in a bank, but it doesn't when it comes to our
vote."
Cliff
was also the lead attorney in the 2004 "Moss v. Bush" case which
challenged the certified electoral votes for the state of Ohio.
This week's interviews were certainly action-packed and historical! Be sure and join us!

Thursday, 14 August 2008 09:52 |
Hello from VoteRescue Radio - Where Citizens Count, One Vote at a Time!
This Friday, August 15th, from 6 - 8 pm CDT, we are proud to welcome as our guest GREG PALAST: Investigative journalist, author of two international New York Times bestsellers,
BBC reporter, filmmaker, and all-around bulldog when it comes to
unearthing evidence about stolen elections, purged voter rolls, and
other government and globalist fraud!
We
will talk with Greg during our first hour about his current
investigation on which he's partnering with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to
produce a national, prime-time, major-network TV broadcast and a series
of radio reports about the massive purging of legal voters in
America, leading up to the November election! Learn what YOU can do to help!
We'll also be interviewing PHIL LINDSEY,
founder of Missouri citizens' election integrity group "Show Me the
Vote". Last week, Phil attempted to vote in the Missouri primary and
was arrested for not showing a photo ID to the election judges -
something found to be unconstitutional in the state of Missouri in
2006! Phil will tell us his story, as well as the story of how his org
collected tens of thousands of signatures for a petition toward the
goal of bringing hand-counted paper ballots to the state of Missouri.
CHUCK YOUNG will also be talking with us Friday. Chuck is one of the founders of Austin-based "Texans for
Accountable Government" (TAG), a recently formed non-profit here in
Austin, a continuation of the Ron Paul Revolution. "TAG" will be
having a meeting in Austin on Sunday, August 24th, at which they will
hold an election for their Steering Committee (and VoteRescue has been
requested to execute the election with - hand-counted paper ballots, of
course!) Chuck will be discussing the meeting, election, goals and
mission of TAG.

VoteRescue Radio 8/1: Paddy Shaffer, Virginia Brooks |

Thursday, 31 July 2008 16:34 |

Hello from VoteRescue Radio - Where Citizens Count, One Vote at a Time!
This Friday, August 1st, from 6 - 8 pm CDT, we welcome back returning guest PADDY SHAFFER, founder and director of the Ohio Election Justice Campaign (OEJC); and OEJC member VIRGINIA BROOKS,
two of eight plaintiffs who have filed suit in Ohio on July 10th
against the Ohio Secretary of State's office. In the case, the OEJC is
asking Hon. Judge Algenon Marbley to begin criminal contempt
proceedings for the destruction of ballots from the November 2004
election. The Ohio Election Justice Campaign (OEJC) submitted over
1000 pages of supporting documents.
Paddy Shaffer is
an amazing election integritiy activist who, along with her
organization, The Ohio Election Justice Campaign, has been holding
Ohio's new Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and her staff (and
Kenneth Blackwell before her) accountable to the citizens on a number
of critical election fraud issues there for years. She has been one of
the primary leaders in Ohio attempting to eliminate the use of
electronic voting machines there. Among her many actions, Paddy was in
New Hampshire helping Bev Harris and others monitor the Recount of
the Republican Primary this past January; in 2006; is a frequent
contributor to OpEd News. Paddy also served as Robert Fitrakis's
campaign manager in 2006 during his bid in the Ohio governor's race.
Virginia Brooks is a member of
the Ohio Election Justice Campaign, and another of the eight Pro Se
Litigants seeking to intervene in the Federal Election Case titled
"King Lincoln et al v. Blackwell (now Brunner). Virginia is from
Ashland County, Ohio and is the State Chair of the Reform Party of
Ohio. This group is affiliated with the New Frontier Coalition, for
which she serves as a steering committee member, and which was founded
to support any third-party candidate, veterans group, seniors, etc. as
long as they stand for the Constitution of the United States of America
and agree to return this country to a Constitutional and representative
Government
In the case before Judge
Marbley, King Lincoln, et al. v. Brunner, et al., the judge had issued
specific orders directing Ohio's 88 county boards of election to
preserve all ballots from the election until a decision was rendered in
the case. At least 56 county boards assert they have destroyed some
ballots from 2004; seven counties assert they have destroyed all
ballots. This citizen-initiated action is pro se litigation in which
the plaintiffs act as theier own attorneys.
We are excited to have Paddy and Virginia coming on the show to explain the details of this courageous lawsuit action.
Guest Co-hosting this Friday will be my friend and book partner, Abbe Waldman DeLozier!
