$55,600 needed for RECOUNT - Due TOMORROW

[dill0n]

http://www.dailypaul.com/node/25817


According to the official letter that Albert Howard signed, the cost is $55,600 for the recount of approximately 240,000 ballots.
The Secretary of State must receive the money in the form of a certified check by 3 PM tomorrow January the 15th.

Go to http://grannywarrior.chip... to donate. We need a major effort of all to raise this money by the deadline.

Spread the word, blog about it, send e-mails , get on the phone, do everything you can to make this happen.

When we have come this far, don't leave us hanging...

I trust you do your best.

Albert Howard

Sorry, first post :o

[krott5333]

I thought that Howard guy already paid for it.

[kirkblitz]

he paid the 2 grand to start it. But the rest is needed to actually count it.

[dill0n]

I thought that Howard guy already paid for it.

He paid the initial $2,000 fee. The full cost to recount every ballot is $55,600. That's just $20,000 more than what everyone's already raised.

[kirkblitz]

that would friggin suck arse if someone didnt step forward with the 20k :(

Where would the money paid already go though if they dont reach it?

[free.alive]

Just think, $55,600 toward a forward thinking strategy of winning some of the....oh....47 other frickin states.

[Jeremy]

what a waste of money....

[bcreps85]

On top of what the Granny Warriors have raised, I believe the Republican who had 44 votes said that he has friends who will contribute a lot to help fund it on top of what Kucinich's campaign is willing to spend.

[dirka]

where is whales with the big cash!

[cheese]

put that money to any one of the grassroots projects and it may actually help ron paul win a state or two coming up.

[m72mc]

what a waste of money....

yes democracy and open free verifiable elections really is a bad thing ?

[UK4Paul]

If there WAS fraud, what's to say it won't happen again... in EVERY OTHER STATE?

I say this is not a waste of money, by any means.

[itshappening]

exactly! this needs to be looked into NOW!! bump

[SaratogaForRonPaul]

$20K more needed!

[itshappening]

can we do it? !

[itshappening]

it's about 18k now!!

[teleomorph]

Are you nay-sayers completely NUTS?!?! This is absolutely crucial. Previous elections have been stolen using the very same machines. What difference does any new supporters votes we gain make if the tallies are fraudulent? Even if it proves not to change President Paul's 5th place finish we must have some closure. If we do find fraud, with either Obama or Paul, then we have saved our country, period.

[dill0n]

Keep in mind everybody, this is NOT about Ron Paul winning more votes!

The Republican and Democratic Recounts have been called for in the interest of voting integrity.

Imagine if voter fraud is confirmed in New Hamphire! Imagine how things would change for the other states, what kind of an uproar it would be.

This does not make or break Ron Paul's campaign, but it is completely worth it, especially for all of the work Albert Howard and the Granny Warriors have already put into this effort.

If we have the most meetup groups of any candidate, the best grassroots organizing of any campaign ever, I don't see why everyone shouldn't be able to pull this off!

Send it to everyone you know, post on every forum, and let them know what it's for!

[fuzzybekool]

This is very important. There should be a recount. A citizen's vote is their most precious weapon in the preservation of a free republic. Votes that are stolen or lost due to treachery or malfunction should be investigated.

[itshappening]

go recounters !!

17200 now required

[itshappening]

sorry 17400 required

[Lesgov]

Is anyone here a member of the ron paul forum?
Please post the info over there as well.

bump

[RonPaul_SantaMonica]

do we get a refund if there is a problem?

[itshappening]

good question, does anyone know?

[UK4Paul]

I agree this is essential - not because RP might end up being 3rd or 4th, but simply because if voter fraud has been taking place, it needs to be nipped in the bud NOW.

Not by the 50th state - which will be waaaay too late.

$17,000 more required.


.

[itshappening]

we have to keep spreading this

[Lesgov]

I understand that if Ron gets 10%, and gets 1 delegate, the money will be returned. Don't know for sure though.

[itshappening]

can someone contact Alex Jones and the Alex Jones Radio show?

[integrity]

240,000 votes for 55,600 thats 23 cents per vote... where is the free market? should be a lot cheaper. at 360 vote counts per hour per person, (1 per second) were paying some clowns 80 bucks an hour to count these?

now this is what i call legit

We should outsource the counting and keep the differential.

[Xenophage]

If there WAS fraud, you won't be able to tell with a recount. There is no paper trail for the voting machines. There is nothing to recount! What do you think you're recounting??

[Geronimo]

Please pass this on to all of your myspace, and facebook friends, fellow meetup members, and anyone else you can think of.

[itshappening]

I think there's police officers and other costs as well

does seem expensive though.....

[itshappening]

If there WAS fraud, you won't be able to tell with a recount. There is no paper trail for the voting machines. There is nothing to recount! What do you think you're recounting??

the paper ballots are fed into the machines, the paper ballots are currently sealed and will be counted properly in this effort I believe....

of course, they could just stuff the ballot boxes... ?

Only paper ballots are allowed in NH. The machines only read and count them. The ballots will be recounted by hand.

[c0unterph0bia]

Blimp!

They could, but let's face it, if there is any hint of re-count fraud, that precinct is probably going to get a LOT of attention :D

So it's an incentive for them to be completely transparent.

We'll see....

California Debate Qualifications - Is Ron Paul Out?


The candidate must have finished in at least fourth place in a 2008 primary or caucus.

This will be measured by the percentage of votes received in primaries or the percentage of delegates awarded in caucuses.

Contests considered for the Republican debate will be the Iowa and Nevada caucuses, the Wyoming county conventions, and the New Hampshire, Michigan, South Carolina and Florida primaries.

If this recount changes his finish in NH it may let him qualify for the debate.

[dill0n]

Just about $40,000!

Come on everybody, if you care about integrity in the electoral process, give what you can! Just $10 is worth it. And spread the message too!

Hi Guys

In addition, if you have a few minutes to spare, email a couple of sites that might be able to give this a quick publicity shot.

Briefly explain the urgency of this, what it is for, and why it needs to be done.

I've just emailed one site I'm familiar with, but there's plenty of sites and blogs that would probably be willing to post on this if they knew.

Find 1 or 2 blogs or sites that you think would be receptive, and send them a polite email!

Spread the word :D

check out this quote from the comments section, I think it is very good:

'I think it is important to send the message that we are watching and will continue to watch the states to keep them honest. And to support the people in each state that went out to vote and show them that we appreciate it enough to make sure it counts.'

Absolutely!.....If there was fraud...and if the recount is honest and exposes it...then a dollar spent here is worth $100 or more spent anywhere else....Again, if there was fraud in N.H. and it is not exposed, then we can expect it to occur across the country and, if so, all that money spent on Ron's campaign will have been wasted (except for the educational value, which, I agree, is an important consideration) so far as Ron's election is concerned. Ron Paul cannot win a rigged election!

[Soccrmastr]

chipins ended, we win!

[itshappening]

who ended it?

[itshappening]

chipin is trying to stop the revolution

[UK4Paul]

It should not have ended here. They need $65,000 as per this comment on DailyPaul.com:

-----
As far as we know this information is accurate in regards to the cost of the recount and the new deadline. But it needs to be understood that this figure does not include the original $2000 and the overhead costs of having Mr. Howard in NH away from his family. So, it turns out that the entire cost will be close to our original estimate of $65000. This is crunch time people! We need as much support and exposure for this recount as possible. Keep fighting the good fight!

PS The Granny Warrior Chipin is running slow (hopefully due to over use) but keep trying. We shall not be so easily detered.

I say this is not a waste of money, by any means.

They have already said the same people will recount. You think they will do it any different. They are going to cover their asses. We need to somehow get a ruling for a public recount. It should be in public anyway.

AS LONG AS MACHINES AND PRIVATE ROOMS ARE USED FOR COUNTING IT WILL NEVER BE FAIR. THAT IS WHAT WE NEED TO CHANGE.

Man, I searched and couldn't find it. Maybe he changed his mind and deleted the thread.

We don't have to give all the money. Albert Howard asked for a recount. He has his own supporters. But we can subsidize it. And if he doesn't need the money, the Granny Warriors can donate the money to the 'Call 4 Paul' ChipIn so that's finished.

A recount using the same people? I thought they said the candidates can monitor the whole count.

Al apparently has 44 supporters in NH :) And one of them came up with a whole 2K. They might need more help than we think.

Two Ron Paul supporters showed up with the 2000 dollars to get it started. This guy has no support...we are funding this or it isn't going to happen. Why do you think the chippin has the total amount? WE are paying for this. I want to see it happen. Having a recount early on will help make sure the other states and workers know they are being watched.

Al doesn't have any money. Al was approached by Ron Paul supporters who have assured him that the finance will come from the grassroots, Al was needed since he could apply for a recount. So far he has been compensated, plain tickets, the initial 2 k and the rest of the money is coming from the Ron Paul grasroots. If they are still short and you feel that a recount should take place than you'll really have to donate yourself. The money really isn't coming from anywhere else.

I remember Alex Jones had someone on his radio show who was willing to pay the whole thing when he was talking with Howard.

In other news, I'm assuming that Dennis Kucinich has enough of his own money to cover the Democrats recount? I honestly think there is a strong chance that Hillary got second in NH, and if this recount goes through and she lost in NH, then not only will it crush her, but then the recount story will get unparalleled national attention, which will really scare others into ensuring this doesn't happen going forward. It will also give a boost of credibility to Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul. If this happens and Ron Paul gains enough to take out Giuliani, then we should have it reported to the media that WE were the ones who funded the recount, because WE are the only people in this country who are honestly interested in defending this great nation and will act upon it to make it happen!

If this really develops, Congress might be compelled to start holding investigations, and who knows how far up they can get this to go. The point is, it will really discredit a lot of those who gained at the expense of honest men like Ron Paul in the eyes of the American people. We know that we've got a slump right now with Ron Paul's perception of electability in the minds of most voters, but something like this can really bring us back in the game!

How do we contact Alex Jones to get this covered nonstop this morning? Alex Jones seems to be the best bet as far as reaching a good amount of people and money to fund the rest of this thing quickly. Seeing how much was raised is yet another way that the grassroots has inspired me. :) Let's get posted here contact information so that we can all contact Alex Jones and help get the rest of the money, in the name of democracy and Ron Paul! :D

put that money to any one of the grassroots projects and it may actually help ron paul win a state or two coming up.

Mitt for Brains spent millions in Iowa and NH and still didn't win those states. Yet somehow you think about 60K is going to buy Ron Paul a win. Interesting math. :rolleyes:

The deadline is 3pm but the Ganny site says the chipin ends tomorrow. If we're a little short before the deadline could the Grannies front it and collect the balance from the chipins after 3pm today? Or at least pay the 55K fee required for today since it looks like the 'additional cost' can be raised within the next 24-36 hours? Just a thought.

[Airborn]

bump, wow up to 9k on the current chipin was 7k like hour ago. keep donating I'm sure it will be met today

CONCORD, N.H.—New Hampshire's Secretary of State's office has given Republican Albert Howard and Democrat Dennis Kucinich estimated costs to re-count their partys' presidential primaries last week.

It would cost Howard, $57,600; Kucinich would pay $69,600.

The costs were calculated at 24 cents per ballot. There were about 290,000 Democratic ballots cast and 240,000 GOP ballots.

Each candidate has put down refundable $2,000 deposits. There was no word from either campaign Monday on whether they will pay the balance before the deadline of 3 p.m. Tuesday, but "there is every indication that they plan to," Deputy Secretary of State David Scanlan said.

Scanlan said a re-count would begin Wednesday and could take weeks to complete.

If either candidate would like the count to start in particular voting precincts, the Secretary of State's office would "attempt to honor" that request, Scanlan said. The candidates can end the re-count at anytime.

Howard received 44 votes and Kucinich received about 3,900.

Kucinich has said he requested the re-count because of "serious and credible reports, allegations and rumors" about the integrity of the results. He has emphasized that he does not expect a re-count to find significant changes to his vote total.

weeks to complete eh? or weeks to fix?

[itshappening]

we need about $6k to meet the actual cost, anything else is to pay expenses

January 14, 2008

William M. Gardner
Secretary of State
State House, Room 204
Concord, N.H. 03301

Dear Mr. Gardner:

I request a proper ballot reconciliation for my recount of the 2008 New Hampshire Presidential Primary Election, and that my recount will include hand counting of Election
Day and absentee ballots, including all blank ballots, spoiled ballots, and voted ballots,
with each count recorded on the recount form.

For each town and/or ward counted, I request that my recount include the result from
each original poll tape, such tape (signed by the election judges) to be examined and
recorded by the ballot recount team.

When preparing the results for the Jan. 8 primary election, the office of the NH Secretary
of State prepared a tally using an Excel program or similar program. I request a copy of
this electronic tally file and a copy of the original data printout from the tally program as
used for the Jan. 8 election.

Pursuant to the state open records law, N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. sec 91-A:1 to 91--A:9, I
write to request access to and a copy of:

1. Copies of the original reconciliation forms submitted by each election jurisdiction in
the state of New Hampshire. It is my understanding that these reconciliation forms
include the number of ballots at each location, the number voted, spoiled and blank, and
the number of absentee ballots, as well as the number of voters who signed into vote.

2. A listing of all towns or wards in the state of New Hampshire that ran out of ballots or
requested more ballots, or had more ballots ordered, made and/or delivered (the number
of ballots requested and obtained by each town or ward, including date, time and location
ordered and delivered, and the number of voters checked in to vote at each town or ward).
This listing should include the chain of custody for the ballots, including but not limited
to the names of those who requested, ordered, printed and/or delivered such ballots.

3. I request the right to examine the poll books for each location.

4. I request a copy of the list of all towns that had machines or memory cards serviced on
Election Day through the present date, together with the names of all personnel who
provided such service, including but not limited to LHS. In addition, I am requesting a
list of all towns that had machines or memory cards serviced in the six weeks prior to
Election Day, together with the names of all personnel who provided such service,
including but limited to LHS.

5. I request the state of New Hampshire obtain and secure all original electronic
media, including but not limited to memory cards, used in the election until the federal
records retention period has expired, as required by 42 U.S. 1974e.

6. I request a list of every computer containing an election management system, ballot
definition program, or tallying program, used for the election, together with the location
of such computers. These computers should be listed by make, model, and/or serial
number or other identifier. This list should include but not be limited to all computers
used to produce ballots, memory cards, audit logs or other documents for the New
Hampshire election, including but not limited to Capital Offset, LHS Associates and/or
any wards, cities, towns and/or the state...

7. I understand that the office of the Secretary of State of New Hampshire has a copy of
each GEMS file in MDB format (possibly in a format called GBF). Each iteration of each
of these files contains reports. I request a copy, in electronic format, of every report
available under the GEMS menu item "Reports" for each of these files.

Because this information is needed in order to plan for the requested recount of the 2008
New Hampshire Presidential Primary, I request the opportunity to inspect the requested
records by 10 am Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2007.

Please note that this request is severable, meaning that denial of any portion of this
request does not affect any other portion. If you choose to deny any portion of this
request, please provide a written explanation for the denial including a reference to the
specific statutory exemption(s) upon which you rely.

Please be advised that I am prepared to pursue whatever legal remedy necessary to obtain
access to the requested records.

Thank you for your assistance.

Sincerely,



Albert Howard







It sound good

The Chip-In page says they're $3,270 short.

Presumably, someone covers the balance and the check gets cut.

[UKMan]

If ChipIn events selected the next president, then the following candidates are definitely in the lead (by number of ChipIn events set up for each candidate).

Dems
Obama - 20
Kucinich - 1
Clinton - 0
Edwards - 0
Richardson - 0

Repubs
Paul - 309 (!)
Guiliani - 0
Romney - 0
McCain - 0
Huckabee - 0
