Scheduled tonight:

- PAMELA SMITH, President of Verified Voting Foundation and DAN MCCREA, President of the Florida Voters Foundation on the March 13th election disaster that struck Palm Beach County, FL as Dominion/Sequoia optical-scanners declared several losing candidates as the “winners”, requiring a court to approve a hand-count last weekend to determine the real winners of the elections. And on why the hell we just don’t start, finally hand-counting ballots in the first place, as per “Democracy’s Gold Standard”.
- GABRIEL REY-GOODLATTE of ColorofChange.org on their Anti-ALEC campaign calling on corporations to stop their funding of the American Legislative Exchange Counsel (ALEC) due to their voter-suppression advocacy and much more.

HOUR 1: Pam Smith and Dan McCrea discuss the computers that declared the wrong winners in Palm Beach, FL (the same ones that will be used to declare the President of the United States this year) and whether we’d all be better off, at this point, tossing the computers and hand-counting ballots once and for all.

Is ALEC a 501-c3?
“Chapter One — Overview
This report examines the history, finances, and activities of the American Legislative Exchange Council, a 501(c)(3) organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C., that bills itself as �the nation�s largest bipartisan, individual membership association of state legislators.� ”
From Daily Kos:
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2...e-501c3-Veneer
“Per the Guidestar web page for the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) it is noted that ALEC was founded in 1973 and received their 501c3 status in 1977. Since that time, as a 501c3, ALEC has depended on the kindness of their corporate members and foundations to fund the majority of their operations.
Yet, it should be noted that although ALEC claims 501c3 status as an educational nonprofit – in 2009, in the State of North Dakota ALEC was a registered employer for lobbyists #484, #485.
On to the nonprofit saga of ALEC…a shiny veneer, hiding something very ugly underneath.
ALEC is a 501c3 ““ they pay no taxes.
ALEC is a 501c3 ““ all donations to ALEC are tax deductible.”
