48. How about donations to VoteTrustUSA and its affiliated state groups?
Andy was one of the original founders of VoteTrustUSA, and it meant a great deal to him. A donation there would both carry on the work he started and provide much-needed support for Election Integrity in general.

http://www.votetrustusa.org/

VTUSA and other election integrity groups are operating on a total shoestring compared to many of the other, longer-established "good government" organizations. Every penny donated to this cause is a direct contribution to Andy's legacy.

A lot our state groups (my own included) are just hanging on, and yet we continue to fight like crazy within our states for voter-verified paper ballot laws and other reforms. But sadly, I fear that if some way is not found to fund our groups more fully, many of our best activists are going to have to drop out and persue other work -- and many of our best and most effective groups may fall by the wayside.

So definitely send Ted a card, and PLEASE consider making that donation to Andy's own organization -- VoteTrustUSA -- and/or one of its state groups.
