Hat tip: Spoons Experience--These are my own words.
Go to this website I linked to and enter your email address. You will almost instantaneously receive the name and mailing address of a registered voter in Clark County, Ohio. The Guardian wants you to write a letter to this person to encourage him to vote and let him know how seriously concerned you are about this election!
The Guardian proclaims it is not doing this to encourage support of either candidate, but I think most Rantburgers are quite familiar with the slant of the Guardian's articles and, by projection, its readership.
I don't expect the FEC has any authorization to shut down a foreign newspaper's blatant attempt to influence America's own national election. Is there any recourse available?
I received the name and address of a Mr. L. Gwinn. I'm tempted to write to him not to influence his vote, but to let him know a foreign newspaper readily supplied his contact information to me for that purpose. I can only hope there's some sort of class action he and other Clark Co. voters can take against the Guardian in response. |
