See (and recommend) this diary for the full story.
I have decided to use my diary today to pimp what should be one of the most important YouTube videos — EVER.
- it is the most important issue facing Americans today
- it is a devastating video against these particular Diebold electronic voting machines that will be used by 10% of the electorate in November.
- it is an issue being ignored by the corporate media (for the most part)
TAKE ACTION:
- Go to the YouTube video I posted
- Write a comment (it will go towards counting for “the most discussed video”)
- Rate it with 5 stars (it will go towards counting for “the most highly rated video”)
- Link it to your blog if you can (it will go towards counting for “the most linked video”)
- Add it to your “favorites” if you have an account (it will go towards counting for “top favorite videos”
Help make this one of the most successful viral videos in American history!

UPDATE 2: Diebold has made a rebuttal at The Chicago Tribune. Take a look and tell us what you think. The chief points are that the software was 2 generations old and the computers are not networked, so no need to worry.

I’ve now got this connected to the DIGG system, as well — if you feel like “digging” it.
This is no cliche — it is crucial to the integrity of American Democracy.
Thank you SG – there is no more important story this year.
Read the story about Athan Gibbs’ work on this problem in Death of a Patriot by Bob Fitrakis.
Good news – Athan Jr. has carried on his father’s work: TruVote verified voting machines are open for business.
I withold comment about murderers and thieves.
Hi Stop George, great video, I want to post this on my web site but can’t figure out how to do it. I joined You Tube, but can’t figure out how to post it on blogs not mentioned in the drop down list. Can you help?????
Hi Diane. First you bring up the You Tube page where the video is, which you can do just by clicking on the video here in this diary. You should see a box just to the right of the video labeled About This Video. Inside that box are two codes, one labeled URL and the other one labeled Embed. If you just want the link, copy the URL code, if you want the video at your site, copy the Embed code. Then just paste the code into your blog entry. As always, preview to make sure it takes before you post.
Thanks, IndyLib!
Returned here a bit too late.
We’re making some waves at YouTube, guys!
In what way?
I have to say quite honestly I am really surprised this hasn’t gotten more attention here. For me, and I can only speak for myself, there is no greater issue. If our votes are being hacked and changed then our democracy is over.
Check out the Top favorites, most discussed, most viewed categories — this video is presented on the first pages of these categories. It’s getting around to those who are not in the choir.
