Subject: HELP OHIO! Urgent Actions Needed To Help Count The Votes! This from our hardworking CASE allies in Ohio: Please at least do the first action ASAP because the provisional ballots are almost finished being counted. (1)URGENT: Contact Ohio Secretary of State Blackwell. Ask him to RECUSE himself from being the tie-breaker concerning the discarding of provisional ballots. SAMPLE EMAIL: " In order for their to be no doubt in people's minds that the election was counted in a fair way, it would be best if you, as Chair of the Bush Campaign in Ohio, recused yourself from being the tie breaker in disputes between Republic and Democratic counters of Provisional Ballots. Someone non-partisan should take this role instead. If you do not recuse yourself I want you to know that I and the whole world will be watching the Ohio count and if it seems that people were disenfranchised because of your bias, the results of this election will not seem settled or fair which will cause distress in this country and the whole world. As a result I implore you not to disenfranchise voters based on technicalities!" BLACKWELL'S CONTACT INFO: J. Kenneth Blackwell 180 E. Broad St., 16th Floor Columbus, OH 43215 Phone: (614) 466-2585 and ask to be transferred to where you can make comment on elections Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you want to do more, you can also contact Ohio media http://www.congress.org/congressorg/dbq/media/?command=state_search&state=oh and the Ohio Governor at http://governor.ohio.gov/contactinfopage.asp to pressure Blackwell. ~~~ 2.
