“Verify the Recall” Inspires Unprecedented Recall Petition Audit Effort

markantill : 01/22/2012 1:12 pm : News, This Just In

The integrity of Wisconsin elections is on the verge of implosion, as United Wisconsin’s coordinated effort to recall Gov. Scott Walker has purportedly led to the submission of more than 1,000,000 petition signatures; leaving the overseer of Wisconsin elections, the Government Accountability Board, with a mountain of data in need of verification and no clear capability to conduct an audit of such scale. Unwilling to allow the abandonment of due process, True the Vote, together with Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty and We the People of the Republic, launched Verify the Recall, an effort to engage citizens in an independent, comprehensive audit of recall petition signatures. To date, this unprecedented effort has inspired more than 10,000 citizens to sign on, all ready to serve as the nation’s largest all-volunteer data entry army. But even with 10,000 volunteers we still need many, many more! We made it easy – True the Vote will send you a link to online form and you enter in the information from the petitions. That’s it. TTV provides the training and support and you get to make history! Please sign up now and forward to your friends! And stay tuned – True the Vote is headed to Milwaukee on Tuesday, Jan. 24th, where they will host a press conference in the rotunda of the Wisconsin state capitol to announce new findings and more plans for the Verify the Recall Effort.

Texas Finally Wins One!

markantill : 01/22/2012 1:12 pm : News, This Just In

Late last week the Supreme Court put the kibosh on the Texas District Court judges who went rogue, rejected the redistricting maps presented to them, and decided to draw their own. PBSNewsHour had a couple of interesting guests on to discuss the “huge setback for the Democrats.” You can watch an 8 minute clip here. What’s next for Texas? The discussions will resume in court, new lines will be drawn, and very likely, new lawsuits will be filed. At some point a settlement will be reached and then….maybe we’ll have our primary. Meanwhile, Texas’ Photo Voter ID has gone through its first round of questioning and now waits for the decision of Mr. Holder.

MLK Day

markantill : 01/16/2012 9:30 am : News, This Just In
Tomorrow our Nation recognizes the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.. History has a way of recasting its heroes; making them angels or demons depending on your point of view.  King’s legacy is no different. His prolific words help redefine civil rights for the betterment of all Americans – but his noted peccadilloes provide fodder for those looking to debate the man and not the message. He made mistakes, he was imperfect, he was human. But what child, regardless of their epidermal hue, hasn’t been inspired by the words “I have a dream…”? We are living in days of unprecedented racial tensions, stoked by the hand of our first “post-racial” president. Would that Mr. Obama heed the words of MLK, who called for the measure of a man to be the content of his character, not the color of his skin; anyone who loves liberty should draw strength from those prolific words. Tomorrow, read the speech. Then get involved to help stop our current national nightmare so that together we can, by God’s grace, heal our land and dream again.
