How to Create a Paper Trail
As the "Wild Card Candidate from Pennsylvania" I am working on protecting our
vote.

How to Create a Paper Trail
"If we did this in 2004 John Kerry would be President today"

Many of us are trying to get rid of the electronic voting machines and demand a paper trail
with little success. I would like to see a 100% paper ballot; however, this is not going to
happen in 2006. There is a way to create a paper trail without passing any new laws. How?

The Democratic party must set up validation tables at all the polling stations. These validation
tables would be armed with affidavit ballots. An affidavit ballot is an affidavit that says: " I,
(voters name and address), do solemnly swear that I voted on (date of election) as follows:"
We then have a ballot followed by a place for the voter to sign and a place for a witness to
sign. These affidavit ballots would be legal proof that would stand up in court. These ballots
could also be checked with voting records to prove that these voters did vote.

The Democratic party would also have workers at all the polls to pass out and encourage all
voters to protect their vote by filling out an affidavit ballot. I believe we could get nearly
100% of Democratic voters to fill them out.

After the election is over, we would keep these ballots in a locked box until after the official
count so that any person attempting to change the vote count would not know just how many
affidavit ballots there are at any given polling station.

After the official count, there would be a count of our affidavit ballots. For example in Ohio,
if we have a total number of ballots for Paul Hackett that equals over fifty percent of the
votes, we have proof Paul Hackett Won. If we had this kind of proof in 2004, John Kerry
would be President today.

Even if we don't have fifty percent of the votes we could still prove fraud at many polling
stations. It is extremely important to PROVE FRAUD.

Thank you, and please check my site GEdwardCook.com for "How To Exhume an
Election". My e-mail address is [email protected]

Sincerely,
