"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."
