Keep Lever Voting Machines!

Supporters Needed to Attend
PRESS CONFERENCE
on the steps of City Hall in Manhattan

Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009
12:45 – 1:30 PM Promptly

City Councilmember Helen Foster is introducing a new Resolution
to Keep Our Lever Voting Machines!



Councilmember Foster

Lever voting machines, supplemented by our accessible ballot marking devices (”BMDs”) for voters with disabilities, are the ONLY AFFORDABLE and MOST SECURE equipment for our future elections.

New York needs to pay attention to our national and statewide economic crisis NOW, and stop all plans to replace our affordable, secure equipment with expensive new equipment that we cannot handle securely!

How to get to City Hall in Manhattan by subway:
N or R to City Hall
4, 5 or 6 to Brooklyn Bridge
J, M, or Z to Chambers Street
2 or 3 to Park Place

This issue is serious, but we will have a loud, fun press conference! We need to estimate how many will attend. Please RSVP by email, or call Teresa Hommel,
Chair, Task Force on Election Integrity, Community Church of New York
Phone: 212 228-3803
