Thanks for posting. I won't be able to make it but sure hope others can! I am trying to catch up (and get ahead) at work BEFORE the recounts start as I am a volunteer in the efforts. We need to circulate this message offline as well.

Just read the details, the picket is EVERY DAY, Monday, December 6 thru Friday, December 11 at 11am to 5pm.

=========================================
December 6, 2004

Picketing Starts Monday, December 6th, 11 a.m., Columbus, OH!!!!!!!!

Fellow Citizens,

In an effort to have free and fair elections we will picket Ken Blackwell's office (180 E. Broad Street) tomorrow on Monday, December 7 thru Friday, December 11 at 11am to 5pm. We are asking him to start the recount, recuse himself from the recount, appear at the Judiciary Hearing about fraud in Ohio,and to not certify electors until the recount is finished. Ken Blackwell has done everything to throw this election and is now running the clock on the recount. This is not about Kerry or Bush, this is about having fair elections that we can trust, where we are represented by people that actually won the election. As Jesse Jackson recently said, “you can’t have the owner of the team and the referee be the same person.” Ken Blackwell is the Co-chair of Relect Bush-Cheney and has refused to step down.

Bring signs, American flags, noisemaking pots and pans, tambourines, props, etc. warm clothes and a tent if you have one or can borrow one. We are prepared to picket and stay until we have a fair election. No more stolen elections!!! Bring your chants and songs. We will tent camp for freedom and fair elections. We are especially asking veterans to come in uniform if possible, because we feel you have an elevated status by having fought for freedom. Come by on your lunch hour or whenever you can make it and bring clothes and sleeping bags to donate. Mainly we need many people to show up ready to stop Ken Blackwell from stealing our election.

For our democracy for which so many have sacrificed and died,

Maybe a mod can move this to the PROTESTS area?

Would like to see the post stay here as the protests could be essential to gaining the news coverage of the issue which will lead to support of the elections investigations, recounts, etc.

I've posted the news media and newspapers in Detroit. I don't have the big city Newspapers E-mail. If anyone has some I would be greatfull to ad them to my list.

This is great news! I hope a big crowd turns out. Get Michael Moores camera out there. Don't forget to play some of the Vets favorite songs: Like Vietnam: "Running thru the Jungle", theme song from "Platoon", "One two three what are we fighting for?" They will make them proud to be there.
Thanks

I sent it to the Chicago Sun-Times reporter who has been writing about the Ohio fraud.

Do we have any members in the Columbus area who can provide real-time information?

Our old pal (from the JK Forum) Choppin' Broccoli is in Columbus, OH. I know he's posted a couple of times here as well. But I also know he's doing his own blog project, so he hasn't dropped by CGCS all that much. Heck if I know him, he may be one of the organizers of these protests.
