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.
