Around PA In 90 Minutes-Citizen Journalists Report on PA Primary

FROM INVISIBILITY TO BEYOND


Special 90 minute "Voice of the Voters!" & "American Voices"

Starting at 7:30 PM ET Wednesday, April 23rd

1360 AM Greater Philadelphia & and on the Internet www.voiceofthevoters.org

Millions of Pennsylvanians sought to exercise their right to vote on Tuesday, yet the 90% who had to use state's voting machines were "voting blind." Nonetheless, Citizen activists hit the streets to watch the parts of the process that they could monitor.

In this 90-minute special edition of Voice of the Voters & American Voices , we'll ask:

--Why is Pennsylvania now being called the Invisible State; portents for the future?

--Were voters able to vote or turned away? Why?

--Was there any indication of "Operation Chaos"?

--What was impact of the so-called "fleeing voter"?

--Were machine breakdowns common and how were they handled? Lines?

--Were provisional and emergency ballots available?

--What "anomalies" did voters and poll watchers notice?

--What were voters most serious concerns both in voting and issues for 2008?

--What have we learned about the State of PA Elections and Potential Impact on November?

Guests will have been on the ground, gathering information, filming or handling phone calls and will present first hand knowledge of this vital State's Operation on Primary Day. a forecast of things to come?
