Project Vote Smart : The Voter's Speakeasy Blog : Voter's Self-Defense System Bus Tour

By Andis Kaulins

Project Vote Smart has a blog for voters on the Presidential Election (and others elections too) titled The Voter's Speakeasy. The Project is also conducting a nationwide bus tour to defend voters from campaign rhetoric and misinformation. The tour thus far is shown below by a map linked from the Project Vote Smart website:

As Project Vote Smart writes on their website:

"After 16 years of work by 6000 volunteers, at the cost of twelve million dollars, the Voter?s Self-Defense System is finally complete, and ready to be presented to American voters from across the nation. To deliver the system Project Vote Smart has acquired a 45? bus that we will be using to tour the nation to teach voters how to defend themselves against the rhetoric and misinformation that come out of political campaigns today. The bus will be in a town near you over the coming year. We are constantly looking for places to bring the bus, if you have an event or place that you think we should bring the bus to please e-mail media@votesmart.org and tell us about it. We need to know where it is, what it is, how many people are expected to attend, contact information for the event or function, and any other information that will help us to bring the bus to your community, so that we can arm you and your neighbors with these essential tools to defend yourselves."

Their schedule up to February 13 is listed here.

It looks like a good idea to us. Help your voters to make an intelligent INFORMED decision.
