Hot Topic: Verified Voting and What is Happening with Legislation in Maryland in 2007.

Stan Boyd (and many others) have been working long and hard on this issue. He will be updating us on where things stand in the fight to get secure voting in Maryland and how we can help to make this happen. The Diebold machines consistently appear among the most pressing problems cited by activists in Maryland - is 2007 the year Maryland will finally do something about them?

Also: Let's spend a short time talking about lessons learned in the 2006 election. Do you have any hot tips that you would pass on to another grassroots activist, something you learned new this time around and others could put to good use in the future? And what issues do we as a group want to focus on in 2007 in addition to verified voting?

Please patronize the restaurant (and budget time for that - the line is slow sometimes!).

Hope to see you on the 16th! For questions, contact Elly Shaw-Belblidia (mirinor@aol.com)
