RE: TrueMajority launches campaign against e-voting

I have passed this onto Congressman Rush Holt's office and they were also
alarmed that it did not appear they coordinated with any other national
players on this campaign.  They are now reaching out to TrueMajority to
determine if a follow-up e-mail campaign that educates people about HR 2239
may be warranted.

Subject: TrueMajority launches campaign against e-voting


I just received an action alert from the TrueMajority group asking 
for help fighting computer voting. The email, from actor and activist 
Martin Sheen, says that "TrueMajority is working on this important 
issue with some of our partners, including Working Assets, The 
Electronic Frontier Foundation, and MoveOn.org", some important 
players in (progressive) online activism.

As we see daily, the concerns about e-voting are getting publicised 
and more people are joining the campaign against black box voting; 
this is just another example of the growing movement.

Given the expected big news by Bev Harris at the press conference in 
Seattle on Tuesday afternoon, it's curious that TrueMajority didn't 
wait just another day or two for news coverage of that announcement 
to get out and help raise additional questions; I'll speculate that 
they just didn't know.
