If you control who votes, you control who wins

Check out this powerful video from the folks at 866-OUR-VOTE.

Well worth the three minutes, this video highlights all the reasons you SHOULD vote one week from today - but encourages voters to know their rights and look to past voting rights challenges (from poll taxes to Florida shenanigans) for examples when voters were disenfranchised.

While the video is powerful, the message shouldn't scare or intimidate - there are many efforts in place across the country to respond to voting rights challenges. But it does remind us that sometimes power does not concede without a fight.

Voice of an undecided voter

Submitted by Fair Vote (not verified) on October 29, 2008 - 12:59pm.

I decided I will not vote for John McCain and Sarah Palin. What about Obama-Biden team? I don't know yet. People I know that are living in our vibrant community, some are still undecided. Those undecided ones may not be lawyers but they are perfectly good, wonderful human beings that are capable of forming deep thoughts and come up with intriguing questions. Questions such as: ** What prompted Barack Obama to run for President? ** Why did Barack Obama choose Joe Biden ( An Iraq War propeller) as his VP running mate instead of those that had voted against the Iraq War from the very beginning? ** What is their ultimate motives? Our community welcome answers so you know.
