This is really good. One rule that you followed is never to ask for something that you will never get. For instance as much as a lot of us would like to have...
Hi Christine, Everyone- I talked with Ty Adams of KCTS. I explained my concern. He says it's a paid announcement, not a PSA. ("We generally don't do PSAs."...
Okay. Maybe you all just witnessed one of my occassional freakouts. I just got a call from Holly Hoag of KCTS. She says their ad says "voter id". She...
I just got off the phone with Carolyn Diepenbrock who is the SnoCo Director of Elections. There has been no change in the counties plans for retrofitting the...
Ron Simms has just hired a new election team, Waldron & Co., to develop and execute a turnaround plan over the next 12 to 18 months. Instead of the $500,000 he...
I agree with Marie completely! We need to get on the Council about this. I would go so far as to say we should get this into the media and raise a BIG stink!...
Barbara - Before anyone raises a media stink, it's important to get the facts straight. No company puts their whole history on their web site. And from what...

I must say that I agree with Mr. Borkowski. My only point in my post was that their website gave no information about any elections experience. I suspect that...
John, While I completely agree that we need to determine the facts behind the hype for everything that is going on, I have a question. Who is the media? The...
A person from the PDCW 46 weighed in on this. She didn't hit reply all so I was the only one that got it. Here is a cut and paste of what she wrote. "Yes,...
Chad, Thank you for reminding me about who the media is. Of course I should remember as I am an occasional 'guest blogger' on BradBlog.com. ... John Gideon ...
Hi John, Richard, Barbara- ... Am I the only person who favors shooting first? Of course, it helps to have lots of bullets. Haha. I'm kidding! Personally,...
Great! I hope you'll also be willing to help us get some good election reform content on the DFW blog. Chad ... -- Chad Lupkes Democracy for Washington ...
Howdy- Phil Harrison just called. We discussed some group business. He's having some machines problems, preventing access to this group. So I'm his proxy. ...
The response I received from Jane Hague (my rep on KKCo.) is that she and the whole council were as surprised as I was. They were not involved, informed, etc....
Have you heard this public service announcement? SUPPORT FOR K-U-O-W COMES FROM THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE. NEW STATE AND FEDERAL VOTING REFORMS ARE...
Hi David (Goldy), Barbara- ... That was great! Barbara had a concern. Sounded the alarm. Asked people who knew or could find out. We got answers. Bravo. I...
Good catch! I think complaints about this ad should go to the King County Elections dept and the Secretary of State. They're the ones paying for the ads, and...
My two cents: We DON'T have to have all facts straight to contact the media, although I personally am not volunteering to do so. The point is that our...
The secretary of state was copied on my email exchange to KUOW. I don't think the King County office was. The ad is accurate but I think people will hear it...
This morning the news reported that Pitkin Co., CO elections counted 1186 phantom votes at one precinct. A 'phantom' vote is one where there was no voter to...
