May 8th, 2007

Dear Mr Hicks :

I understand that Clint Curtis’ Contest will be addressed by the House Administration Committee Tuesday of this week. I have heard that you believe that we do not have enough evidence. What we did not have is mainstream media coverage. What we do have is hard evidence that there is a discrepancy between the official count and the affidavits that were gathered from actual voters.

I also understand that the committee doesn’t think that sworn affidavits are enough evidence. In the past, it was exit polls that were considered not good enough because they did not connect the vote with the voter. Our system does exactly that. It is like having paper ballots to count except even better. They are signed. Affidavits and eye witness testimony are the corner stone of our legal system. If you are not willing to accept what every court in the country requires as evidence, what level of proof are you willing to accept?

If you would require the errors in the code to be found, we must be allowed access to the code and the machines. We are aware of hundreds of experts willing to independently examine and blueprint those proprietary systems should that opportunity become available. In the meantime, an Independent Investigation will determine once and for all if the machines in District 24 counted accurately. Attached please find documentation that briefly describe our Walk for Democracy and the results. You will see that unlike Jennings whose 18,000 votes can never be found, Mr Curtis’s votes can easily be found. I trust your Committee will have the willingness to review the information attached and to seriously consider the evidence. We have spoken with over 40 representatives' offices who have been impressed with our data. I have sent the attached documentation to them as well so they will have time to review it before tomorrow’s meeting.

An Independent Investigation can be conducted easily and inexpensively, and the results verified. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent on Jennings’s race chasing votes that unfortunately can never be found. For under $30,000 you could know for sure what happened in District 24. This is not about partisan politics. It is about our Democracy. Every vote needs to be counted. Thank you for being willing to take a stand – a stand for the American people and their right to have their vote counted.

Thank you for doing what is right for America.
