Election Day Nov. 2
Attention Please!
PA Republican Senate Pro Tempore Jake Corman seems to be moving forward with an Arizona-style audit of the 2020 election at taxpayer's expense using an outside firm to run the audit and will be allowing this firm access to your personal information.
Call Rep. Dunbar & Senator Ward and tell them NO!
Rep. Dunbar (724) 744-0305
Senator Ward (717) 787-6063
See Pittsburgh Post Gazette Article for story on audit
A must read on the audit process
Democratic Voices
Communication Focus Group
Your Voice and Opinions are powerful. As a voter you enjoy more persuasive ability to influence a member of Congress than a lobbyist in Washington, It is not ONLY your right, but your duty to make contact with your legislatures
Constitutional Corner
Orderly Transfer Of Power
Since many of us may be separated from our high school history classes by a number of years, a short reference to the bedrock of our government, the Constitution, might be helpful.
Perseverance
What's it going to take to win in 2021 and beyond...
Way back in the summer of 2019, I wrote for this group an article "What it's Going to Take to Win 2020". I thought it might be useful to look back and see what worked and didn't work based on 2020 election results as a way to look ahead.

Letter of the Week
First Hydroxychloroquine, now Ivermectin...
First it was hydroxychloroquine and now it is ivermectin. People all over this country, particularly those in red states, are taking this livestock medicine to ward off Covid-19 and poisoning themselves in the process.
Thousands of our fellow Americans acting on the advice of right wing media and politicians, are exposing themselves to illness and death. As mentioned in your May 3 article, "Carlson's disgusting new low", some on Fox news deliberately lie "just to get people fired up, angry and afraid". We find ourselves in a position where some of our news sources and some politicians lie to us while profiting from it. However, we have the power to change this situation. We can demand that our politicians and our news media, whether print, airways, cable, satellite or internet, use due diligence in checking the accuracy of their statements. This in no way infringes on our First Amendment rights. We have the right to free speech. We do not have the right to lie. We should not tolerate politicians and news media who lie to us. There should be consequences for those who do. We must bring the old fashion virtue of honesty back into our discourse. Honesty, integrity and character should be more important than money and power. Without truth we will not only lose our democracy, we will be pushed into another dark ages.
