VoteRescue Supporters:
Good news, folks! On behalf of VoteRescue, I have recently become a
board member of the new coalition called Better Austin Today which is a
very proactive group /(described below the invitation)/ that wants to
put its support behind candidates running for City Council in May and
years to come who will be most responsive to the citizens of Austin as
opposed to the moneyed special interests. Our fight for total
transparency in our elections is one that definitely resonates with this
group of people.
You are all invited to come to a party being sponsored by Better Austin
Today at *Jovita's, TOMORROW, Sun., Feb.24 from 5-8 pm.* Come out to
meet a lot of great folks who are very determined to change the
direction of the current City Council. Of course, I remind them at
/every/ opportunity that we _must_ get rid of the secret vote counting
by the machines if the will of the people is to be truly heard at the
polls. And what would these elections look like? That's right:
hand-counted paper ballots! ~Karen

*Better Austin Today* is a broad coalition comprised of city leaders
from neighborhood, environment, social equity, small/local business,
social services, civil liberties, and various others. Our common
interest is responsive, accountable government working toward a
progressive vision for Austin's future. Better Austin Today plans to
endorse and support candidates for City Council (and other races going
forward that will have a direct impact on Austin) beginning with the
May, 2008 election to build a strong voice of public interest to counter
the influence of moneyed special interests in local politics.
