DESCRIPTION:The historic Red Vic Movie House on Haight Street will play host to four 
 screenings of the new film, UNCOUNTED: The New Math of American Elections, 
 on Sunday, March 2. UNCOUNTED is a feature-length documentary that exposes 
 numerous threats to the core of our democracy - our right to 
 vote.\n\nUNCOUNTED, written, produced, and directed by multiple Emmy 
 award-winner David Earnhardt, examines how the fraud that changed the 
 outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater election fraud in 2006 and 
 now looms as an unbridled threat in 2008. San Francisco has seen the threat 
 to the integrity of the election process first hand having just settled a 
 lawsuit with electronic voting machine manufacturer, ES&S. UNCOUNTED 
 addresses the issue of electronic voting as well as other systemic problems 
 that plague our nation's elections and thus disenfranchise voters - Jim 
 Crow-like voter suppression, voter intimidation, undervoting, provisional 
 balloting, and the the privatization of the election 
 process.\n\n"California is a critical part of the UNCOUNTED story," says 
 Earnhardt. "California is where one man with everything to lose blew the 
 whistle on the illegal activities of Diebold, one of the biggest makers of 
 voting machines in America." That man, Steve Heller, is one of three 
 "whistle blowers" profiled who transform the movie from a well-deserved 
 indictment of our election system into an uplifting story of American 
 patriots hellbent on doing the right thing. Also included is computer 
 programmer Clint Curtis, who is directed by his boss to create software 
 that will "flip" votes from one candidate to another, and Utah County Clerk 
 Bruce Funk, who is locked out of his office for raising questions about 
 security flaws in electronic voting machines.\n\nThe San Francisco 
 screenings of UNCOUNTED are sponsored by Green 960AM. Additional support 
 comes from Voting Rights Task Force, a group committed to secure, open, and 
 verifiable elections, and Election Defense Alliance, a democratic, 
 participatory organization bringing together election integrity activists 
 from across the country.\n\nScreening times are at 2:00 pm, 4:00 pm, 7:15 
 pm, and 9:30 pm on Sunday, March 2, at the Red Vic, 1727 Haight Street, San 
 Francisco, CA 94117.\n\nA post-film question and answer session featuring 
 the filmmaker, David Earnhardt, will follow each screening.\n\n
