Stand up and be counted Wednesday 3/2

Here's an important message:

EVERY VOTE MUST COUNT!

Please join us – Democracy North Carolina, NC Fair Share, Raleigh NOW, Planned Parenthood, & NARAL Pro-Choice North Carolina – in standing up for voter's rights!

On Wednesday, March 2nd the Wake County Superior Court will decide the fate of more than 11,000 provisional ballots cast by North Carolinians on Election Day. In the still-undecided election for Superintendent of Public Instruction, the court is considering throwing out 11,310 provisional ballots, despite a provisional ballot law passed in NC two years ago to protect against this kind of voter disenfranchisement. More than 11,000 North Carolinians could lose their voice in matters that directly affect them as tax-paying citizens in North Carolina – representation in our state government! We must act now!

Show your support by participating in any or all of the following activities on March 2nd:

12:30-1:30pm Burma Shave
Make signs and raise your voices for those who might lose theirs!
Location: Wake County Courthouse, 335 S. Salisbury St, Raleigh

1:30-2:30pm Leaflet/Rally
Gather in front of the Wake County Courthouse to advocate for voter's rights.

To ensure that your vote was counted, please look up your county and see if your name is on the list of disenfranchised voters – if you voted on Nov. 2nd with a provisional ballot in the wrong precinct. http://www.democracy-nc.org/improving/OOPcover.html. Then contact Democracy North Carolina: www.democracy-nc.org/default.htm. They need to hear your story!
