WRITE to NY officials today

This will take less than five minutes. 

Please send this letter, or your own comments on hybrid voting systems, today. We've made this easy by setting it up for you here.  Anyone can send a letter. Voters across the country have legitimate concerns that once hybrids are in use in New York, they are more likely to be certified in other states. They are already certified in many places and this is a growing concern. 

Our letter will send comments to all New York State Representatives. 

After you write your letter - please call Governor Andrew Cuomo. NY State commissioners are appointed by the governor- so he has tremendous power on this issue.

Here is a concise message: 

Dear Governor Cuomo.

I am calling to alert you that Thursday 1/28th at noon the New York State Commissioners may vote to certify a touch screen voting machine called the ExpressVote XL. It counts votes on thermal paper using bar codes. 

One security expert called it a “bad voting machine” saying that it can “add, delete, or change votes on individual ballots.”

Common Cause/NY said they are “alarmed to see the New York State Board of Elections move in a direction that would undermine the security of our elections.” 

I’m asking you, urgently, to speak with the commissioners before the meeting, and ask them not to certify this voting system that will deteriorate our ability to have confidence in our elections
