color=#000000>"We have every reason to believe that the 2008 election is going
to be manipulated."<BR>––Jonathan Simon, co-founder of Election Defense
Alliance, a national election integrity nonprofit <BR>"Stealing America: Vote by
Vote"<BR><BR><BR>Everyone I know lugs around a low-grade dread, like an
undetected virus invisible until the obvious outbreak, about the upcoming
presidential election. Many of us (including a surprising number of
non-partisans and Republicans) stoically retain the knowledge that something
terrible happened during the 2000 and 2004 elections. And then there are others,
myself included, who feel that nothing short of election-fraud occurred during
both elections. But what exactly happened (okay, aside from a Court of five in
2000 throwing a victory party for GWB)? How can it be righted? And who’s going
to do it? I mean, where’s the “Deep Throat” for “electiongate”? We are exporting
democratic “ideals” to other countries, like Iraq and the Ukraine (with its
Orange Revolution), yet they have a better voting system than ours. How can this
be?<BR><BR>As increasingly they are wont to do, documentary filmmakers rush in
where the media fears to tread. "Documentary" set out to discover as many
election-fraud-related docs as we could find. By telephone, we interviewed two
directors and an executive producer of the two most prominent efforts:
"Uncounted: The New Math of American Elections" (dir., David Earnhardt) and
"Stealing America: Vote by Vote" (dir., Dorothy Fadiman; exec. prod., Mitchell
Block). <BR><BR>Personally, after screening these films, I couldn’t decide if I
wanted to throw up my hands in despair and never vote again, or run out and
organize a 21st century Weather Underground. One can be mad as hell, and swear
she won’t take it anymore, but, realistically speaking, what can one person do?
As frustrating and enraging as the revelations in these films are, fortunately,
they also provide specific and practical plans of action for individuals and
activist groups to increase vigilance and ensure election integrity. For, as
Earnhardt, Fadiman and Block concur: it’s all about grassroots organization.
