Hello from Radio Land: VoteRescue Radio, Where People Count, One Vote at a Time!
This Friday, July 11, from 6 til
8 pm Central time, we are excited to have several fascinating guests:
In our first hour, we'll have Penny Langford Freeman giving
us her take on the Texas Legislature's June 25th hearing on electronic
voting, where she gave a statement; on the "Festival 4
Freedom" event in Sturgis, S.D. where we shared a house for several
days on and around the 4th of July; and another surprise topic of high
interest to Texans! Penny will be joined by colleague Carol Jones, who also attended the hearing; Carol was the ballot integrity chair for former Texas Governor Bill Clements.
Penny Langford-Freeman
is a fourth-generation rancher/farmer who worked for Congressman Ron
Paul as his District Political Director, Caseworker and Scheduler for
10 years. While representing the Congressman before many forums, she
became a spokesman for the Americanist cause in her own right. She
currently owns Revolution Consulting, an independent political
consulting agency. She and her husband also own an equine health
facility, Liberty Oak Ranch on the Gulf Coast. They have eight children
ranging in ages from 15 to 34. Penny has a lot of political savvy and gives a fun and fascinating interview.
In our second hour, we welcome back Richard Hayes Phillips, who has been touring the country promoting his new book, "Witness to a Crime", an
investigative report and eyewitness history -- the document of record
for what really happened during the 2004 election in Ohio.
Richard
began investigating the 2004 Ohio Presidential election when he
received an unsolicited e-mail containing obviously erroneous election
results from Cleveland. He quickly found that hundreds of
votes in certain precincts had inexplicably shifted from John Kerry to
other presidential candidates. This made him a witness to a crime, with a duty to investigate further and to present his findings publicly.
Phillips
wrote and submitted 21 papers to the Ohio Supreme Court as an expert
witness in the Moss v. Bush lawsuit. He presented evidence of voter
suppression, failure to count ballots cast, and alteration of the vote
count, sufficient to question the alleged victory of George W. Bush in
Ohio. You won't want to miss this interview!
Karen
and I will also be giving more details about the Texas Legislature's
hearing on electronic voting, and the excellent presentations of the
experts VoteRescue brought in: Bruce Funk, Noel Runyan, Jim March, and Clint Curtis;
and we'll talk about the Sturgis event and what transpired there last
weekend at the "Festival for Freedom", organized by "Granny Warrior"
Linda Hunnicut.
VoteRescue Radio can be heard on the radio in the Austin area at 90.1 FM; is streaming live on www.wtprn.com (for "We the People Radio Network"), AND, can be heard OVER THE PHONE at 512/485-9010! All shows are archived at the above web site, usually within a couple of hours after 8pm CDT.

four fantastic witnesses: Jim March of Black Box Voting; Clint Curtis,
Democratic Congressional candidate and e-voting whistleblower; Bruce
Funk, former 23 year Elections Administrator of Emery County, Utah;
and Noel Runyan, technical expert who wrote the Accessibility study for
the U. of California "Top to Bottom Review".
Karen and I will describe the events before,
during, and after the Hearing. Our witnesses did a superb job of
educating Representatives on the Committee, as well as many members of
the public, on the inherent security issues surrounding the use of
electronic voting of all types.
I will be in Sturgis, South Dakota, with Abbe
Waldman DeLozier, for the "Festival 4 Freedom" organized by Linda
Hunnicutt, "The Granny Warrior". Abbe and I will be speaking the
afternoon of the 4th, and will be part of a very honorable lineup of
fine patriots. We will be meeting & greeting folks starting July
2nd, so I'll be lining up some special guest speakers to come join us
on the air Friday evening.
Tune in this Independence Day - we'll have some real, live patriots on the air for interviews!

VoteRescue Radio: Rebroadcast: David Earnhardt, "Uncounted" |
|
|
|
Friday, 27 June 2008 |
Hello from VoteRescue Radio - Where Citizens Count, One Vote at a Time!
Today,
due to exhaustion after a very exciting couple of days at the Austin
Capitol Hearing of the House Committee on Elections, we will be running
a rebroadcast of a wonderful interview from May 18th with special guest
David Earnhardt, Producer/director/writer of the spectacular film
expose on election fraud and voter disenfranchisement, "Uncounted - The
New Math of American Elections".
This powerful film
demonstrates how millions of people's votes are uncounted in major
election after major election, either through voter suppression - where
people showing up to the polls on Election Day are prevented from
exercising their right to
vote - or through the many problems with
the electronic voting that comprises the way 85% of voters now cast
and/or have their ballots counted.
David has been touring the
nation for the last several months with this blockbuster film and
getting rave reviews everywhere. 400 "House Party" screenings have
been held in 42 states; the film has sold in all 50 states and 206
countries through its website, "UncountedTheMovie.com". Approximately
10,000 viewers have been "fired up" for action by this dynamic and
important film.
As David said in a recent e-mail blast,
"As
we finish up this tumultuous primary season and head into the general
election, "Mayday" is the emergency code word and international signal
for distress that should be on everyone's lips. For as much progress as
we've made on the issue of election integrity, come November we are
still only a Supreme Court decision or state law away from your
precious vote being denied, lost, or altered." David will offer
specific actions citizens can take to get the word out on this film and
this issue.

And Host Two Related Events
Who: Austin-based election protection group VoteRescue and its Coalition, Texans for REAL Elections, bringing in experts to testify

printers added. They discovered “the worst security holes ever found” in electronic voting systems.

Yang Enterprises in 2000; became a whistleblower who gave a deposition
about this in court. (Clint was invited by the State to testify)

Noel Runyan: Expert on evaluation of accessibility of electronic voting systems for the disabled. Wrote
the 2007 report for the University of California stating that NONE of
