Call to Action: Insist on Hand Counted Paper Ballots for Federal Offices
A Message from VotersUnite! in partnership with the National Ballot Integrity Project

Write to Senators Harkin and Grassley and to your representative in Congress and ask them to support the Federal Paper Ballot Act of 2004.

Federal Paper Ballot Act of 2004

(1) All votes for federal offices shall be cast on paper ballots.

(2) All votes for federal offices shall be hand counted at the polling places where the votes were cast, and the manual count shall constitute the official count of the votes.

(3) Manually-tallied precinct totals for all federal offices shall be prominently posted at the polling places before the ballots are transported to the central facility.

(4) In any jurisdiction where votes for federal office are also counted by machine, the machine totals for federal offices shall be posted at the location where the votes are machine-counted.

(5) All absentee votes for federal offices shall be counted by hand, and the totals shall be posted at the central election office.

(6) This act is effective on the date of enactment.


Insist that your legislators understand ...
 
... a questionable, unauditable election in November could lead to massive court challenges and tear the country apart.

... an electronic federal election will result in a national crisis in November, regardless of the election outcome.

... it is the responsibility of Congress to avert a national crisis. This legislation will avert that crisis.

... you will not cast your vote for them in November unless they support this legislation.

Insist that they introduce and support the Federal Paper Ballot Act of 2004.
