Hello VoteRescuers!

A few of you have been kind enough to volunteer your time tomorrow,
but we can use more help!

Tomorrow we will be presenting citizens' comments about the Hart
InterCivic whistleblower lawsuit at the County Commissioner's court
session.  You do not need to bring any comments with you - we will
have comments already have them prepared to give each volunteer to
read into the record.  We are beginning to attend these sessions and
hope to become "regulars" there because the County Commissioners
control the "purse strings" for purchase of voting machine equipment
(and any new software versions or licensing renewals, etc.)  for the
County Election office (Dana DeBeauvoir).  We visited each of the
Commissioners individually last year and gave them each a notebook of
information about the problems with the voting machines, and a copy of
our book, "HACKED!  High Tech Election Theft in America".

The Court meets in a voting session each Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. in the
Commissioner's courtroom on the first floor of the Travis County
Administration Building at 314 W. 11th St., Austin. The public is
welcome in the courtroom and  it is the practice of the Travis County
Commissioners Court to allow the public to testify before the
Commissioners Court on any item listed on this agenda, whether it is
posted formally as a public hearing or not.  (Voting systems are not
on their agenda for tomorrow, but we will therefore be allowed to make
our comments on them anyway.)

Each citizen will have 3 minutes to make a statement or read something
into the record.  Again, we will provide you with material to read
into the record.  The location and info are below:

County Judge:  Samuel T. Biscoe
314 W. 11th St  - (Courtroom is on the first floor)
Austin, TX 78701
Phone: (512) 854-9555

Thanks to our wonderful volunteers, we had 55 minutes of testimony at
the recent Secretary of State's Hearing.  We hope to duplicate that
tomorrow; we will be attempting to have some kind of presence there
every Tuesday, as they are in session each week.

PLEASE E-MAIL ME IF YOU CAN MAKE IT SO I'LL KNOW HOW MANY VOTERESCUERS
TO EXPECT!

Thank you!

Vickie (and Karen)
