Yesterday the group gave the county Board of Supervisors a report that they wrote after pouring over more than 10,000 documents for the past three months. Their report included evidence of elections staff correcting documents to balance ballot inventory; electronic voting machines being delivered up to 11 days before the election, some times to bathrooms [Election law permits officials to deliver voting machines a week before Election Day]; and missing electronic voting cartridges. Of course the county registrar could only do all she could do to minimize the issue. Congratulations to SAVE R VOTE. They got the county supervisors to listen. They have ordered an audit of the Registrar&#8217;s office to determine why there were hundreds of violations found. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Featured &#8211; CA: Riverside County &#8211; Voter activist group finds fault with June election <br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nctimes.com\/articles\/2008\/09\/15\/news\/californian\/riverside\/zbe718d02488b0d73882574c6000370bf.txt\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.nctimes.com\/articles\/2008\/09\/15\/news\/californian\/riverside\/zbe718d02488b0d73882574c6000370bf.txt<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>CA: Riverside County &#8211; Election watchdog group to present findings to supervisors today<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/-1\/newsfront\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/-1\/newsfront<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>CA: Riverside County &#8211; Election watchdog group wants more training for poll workers<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/1006\/news01\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/1006\/news01<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>CA: Riverside County &#8211; County supervisors order audit of Registrar&#8217;s office<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/-1\/NEWSFRONT\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.mydesert.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080916\/NEWS01\/80916014\/-1\/NEWSFRONT<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>National: Post-DNC: Election Protection<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scoop.co.nz\/stories\/HL0809\/S00206.htm\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.scoop.co.nz\/stories\/HL0809\/S00206.htm<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>National: Helping vets vote should be law, senator says<br \/> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/news\/2008\/09\/military_veterans_voterregistration_091508w\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>http:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/news\/2008\/09\/military_veterans_voterregistration_091508w\/<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>National: Rove tricks?
