I got the following notice from Linda at the Arizona Advocacy Network:
My name is Linda Brown and I Direct the Arizona Advocacy Network, a
community organization leading the fight to overturn Prop 200's voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements through a federal lawsuit. As you may know, about two weeks ago the US Supreme Court overturned a preliminary injunction that had enjoined these requirements for Tuesday's election. In their order they challenged us to document the extent of voter disenfranchisement. We are recruiting volunteers to help us with this enormous task. They will be stationed outside polling places during the morning and evening rushes to interview voters who were unable to cast regular ballots due to the ID requirements.
In addition, we need help posting our signs outside polling places that provide voters with our toll-free hotline. The signs say "Questions or Problems Voting? Call 1-866-OUR-VOTE."
If you are interested in this issue, perhaps you would be willing to
publicize our hotline and send out a plea for volunteers to your readers. Those interested can contact our Organizer, Eric Pashkin at
epashkin@yahoo.com. Or they can call our Phoenix office at 602-297-2500.
Thanks very much,
Linda Brown

If you aren't otherwise engaged during the election, please consider helping with this important effort.
