I am writing to ask for your help and support for someone and something of great importance to me.

Alastair Thompson, General Manager of Scoop Independent News, has just announced the launch of a pro bono Advertising Campaign for U.S. Electronic Election Integrity.

Will you help? Words cannot express how much I would appreciate your support of Scoop and this campaign.

Here are seven actions you can take to make a difference:

ACTION #1: CONTRIBUTE FUNDS FOR ADVERTISING

Your contribution will help cover Scoop‘s costs of providing free advertising to organizations that are working for election reform and to spread the word about election integrity issues.

You can contribute online at:

Pro-bono Advertising Campaign For U.S. Electronic Election Integrity

http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL0809/S00159.htm

Financial support is critical to make this campaign successful.

Are you short on funds? Cancel your subscriptions to media that failed to tell you what you really needed to know over the last decade, and instead support Scoop because they have offered you free access to the truth about what has been happening for years and will continue to do so.

While you are at it, tell the corporate media why you are canceling your subscriptions.

ACTION #2: PASS THIS MESSAGE ON

Pass this link on to those in your networks who want to see honest elections in the United States and who appreciate and support independent media.

ACTION #3: CONNECT WITH GROUPS

Do you know groups working for U.S. election integrity who need media exposure? This is a unique and free opportunity for election reform news websites, documentary makers, authors and activist groups to raise the profile of their activities and publications by placing free ads on Scoop’s website  Please let them know about this campaign and Scoop‘s powerful audience in this space.

ACTION #4. BLOG IT

If you are a blogger, post links to Scoop‘s incredible archive of U.S. election fraud stories, American Coup II – 1999 to 2008 , as well as to this campaign.

If you are not a blogger, post links when you comment on blogs or forums with readers who would be interested.

ACTION #5. SEND IDEAS

Do you have ideas on how Scoop can make a difference to voting and election integrity in this election cycle?  E-mail Scoop at the campaign contact e-mail – usacoup@scoop.co.nz – or post your suggestions on my blog and I will forward them to Scoop.

ACTION #6. GIVE THANKS

The truly great reporters of our generation could use an infusion of good old-fashioned appreciation. Take a moment to thank Alastair and the journalists at Scoop for their extraordinary accomplishments on our behalf over the last decade. Feel free to post at my blog, if you like.

If you are not familiar with Scoop, you may want to check out their website and see how many U.S. journalists and commentators who, like me, have come to rely on Scoop to publish and build a global following after being censored by the corporate media.

ACTION #7. PRAYERS AND MEDITATIONS

Pray and meditate – according to your practice – for the team at Scoop and all those who are working to ensure honest elections in the United States during this critical period.

For example, here is what I posted recently in my “9-11 Anniversary Prayer”.  I had in mind Scoop’s accomplishments in supporting the Unanswered Questions effort to organize citizens in support of holding government accountable to investigate the events of 9-11:

We give thanks for independent media;
We give thanks for independent journalists and investigators;
authors, engineers, and scientists, concerned citizens;
Lord, protect them, encourage them, lift them up and let them feel today
our appreciation and our admiration;
They have stood between us and the abyss:
They are “the repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in.”
Let our resources gather to replenish and refresh them—
their best is yet to come.

  1. I’ve spent years in Computer Access field, the last 7 in Voter Registrar’s Offices. The solution
    to voter integrity is quite simple; you go into the voting place you tell the pepole who you are
    and they say “Are you who you say you are? you pull out your ID get your ballot go to machine to vote. Before voting, insert card into machine, vote, retrieve card with vote recorded on it. If Election doesn’t appear to add up, a 1000 (whatever number is relevant) or more voters go to special counter insert card, you know how you voted the first time, if things don’t addup:NEW ELECTION!!! Keep it simple folks.

  3. Hi Catherine, Nice to hear you are still “in there pitching!” I spent 2 months in N.Z. once and hated to leave. The natives had such good common sense it was a breath of fresh air to hang out with them. But my son’s wife was pregnant and not being able to hold that baby in my arms (if I violated my visa/return ticket) was too big a price to pay. That was before I met Roy–which I’m sure glad I did. Hope you’re fine. Love,Ann

  4. I also could not access these URLs on Firefox, but was able to on IE. Am definitely forwarding to all.

  6. There needs to be a way to confirm your vote to take election intergrity to the next level. If you don’t know how your vote is counted- then you are relieing on good faith in those that handle such things. If however you were given a unique ID# for your vote, which you could check against a comprehensive database, then it would be impossible to steal your vote without you knowing about it. Your vote would still be private, but also traceble by you.
    In the event that votes were miscounted- there would be a smattering of complaints to initiate an inquirey.
    If this system wre implemented and refined- it would make fraud much more difficult to achieve. There might still be dead people voting and people mismarking ballots, but major instances of fraud would be much harder to hide.

  8. I am well aware now of Scoop but when I first went to 911 meetups in Manhattan at the end of 2001 one of the members of the original 911 group was Miles Thompson, another of the Thompson family, living and working in NYC.

    At that time fall and winter of 2001, there were few people willing to say they had serious questions about 911 and the truth of the media’s coverage but here was Miles and he had already done something by building the website – unansweredquestions.org. Later he helped me build a website questioning a HUD project-that needed investigating in Manhattan.

    So of course I believe in giving to Scoop – and will give – just as they have given to the cause of free speech.
