"Stopping voter suppression, by observing the vote.


"In 2000 and 2004, problems plagued the polls in different parts of the 
country: long

lines, eligible voters turned away, voter intimidation, misallocation and 
malfunctioning

of voting equipment. They were underreported on Election Day. Days and weeks 
later, a

more complete picture of voter disenfranchisement emerged—but it was too 
late. The

elections were over and the media had moved on. Starting this election, 
citizen

journalists—people like you and I—will document problems as they occur. 
We'll play them

online, spread word through blogs and partner websites, doing our part to 
make sure the

full story of our elections is told."
