Here's Kathy Dopp's email:

NEDA has prepared a historical summary of important facts and events
related to the ongoing debate over the validity of the 2004 presidential
election results and presented recommendations to ensure vote count
accuracy.

Beginning with the discovery that 2004 presidential exit poll numbers
were altered late during election eve and forced to match the official
vote counts, through subsequent proposed explanations for the
unprecedented, statistically implausible disparity between vote counts
and exit polls, to the latest analyses of Ohio's precinct-level exit
poll results which purports to demonstrate vote fraud, the report
presents brief, simplified summaries of relevant milestones.

Ensuring fair and accurate vote counting is an essential element of
American democracy and is fundamental to each American’s right to vote.
This historical overview is provided to aid media and the public in
understanding what might be regarded as the most important debate of our
era.

NEDA's purpose is to facilitate research of and the formulation of
policies dealing with procedures that will ensure accurate vote counts;
and making detailed election data and information publicly available.
NEDA places particular emphasis on and will devote all of its initial
resources to creating a “National Election Data Archive” project with
the goal of ensuring the accuracy of U.S. elections.
