Paul Orgel, on Washington Journal, held up today’s issue of the WSJ and a column on the many groups set to monitor tomorrow’s election results. I’ve wondered who will answer those toll-free phones; this story reports that if the situation requires that a lawyer is needed to resolve a problem, one will be dispatched. The Online WSJ provides this free report:

I always like to have some way to picture the individuals involved in election integrity. Photos on their web site or their appearances in videos are also helpful.
Finding photos so that we can identify better with their efforts IS very difficult. Bev Harris of Black Box Voting has been pictured in articles on her project. Just tonight, Lou Dobbs has interviewed another set of authors on the fraud in Ohio, in 2004, I assume. But these interviews don’t last very long.
When they called upon Dr David Dill of Verified Voting, he was on the screen for a matter of seconds.
Warren Stewart, the former Bach Society conductor, had an appearance tonight. He has a scholarly look about him, and, making the most of his brief time, his main suggestion was to caution voters to look at their ballot on the machine and call for assistance if incorrect. His goal is to call attention to a flipped vote before it is cast. He wants voters to identify errors before the election is declared over.
These people ROCK!
If i didn’t have to work 2 jobs to make ends meet here, I’d have volunteered to be a hero like these people. They may not save our democracy, but they certainly deserve more credit for trying than any of us “fighting keyboardists.”
YOU GO!
