   Investment? One Day
   Value to Democracy? Priceless

   For the November Municipal Elections, we are planning our biggest audit
   observation yet, .  It is likely that close to fifty towns will be
   counting three races across thousands of ballots.  The audit period will
   be: Wed Nov 18 through Mon Dec 1st.

   Our goal is to cover every audit with a minimum of two Observers.  We
   will need at least 50% more people to volunteer beyond the number who
   volunteered last year.

   Your participation will make this goal a reality.  Please sign-up today
   and join us again!

   To reach our goal of covering every audit with at least two observers
   will require more volunteer observers.  We have added new observers but
   need more! - in total we need about 50% more than last year.

   Our  largest gaps are in the areas of North Western, Northern, and
   Eastern Connecticut.  We need more observers in those areas and more
   observers willing to travel a little further to provide us the
   flexibility to cover the entire state.

   If you gained from your experience, invite some friends!
   If you are committed to voting integrity, invite some friends!
   Who might be interested in Litchfield County?  The Quiet Corner?  near
   Rhode Island? or near Massachusetts?
