 Fadiman\n\n\nPresented by Joy Newhart\nfrom MoveOn\n\n\nThis alarming, but 
 carefully reasoned, documentary does for American democracy what 
 Inconvenient Truth did for global warming.  Was the 2004 presidential 
 election a complete travesty?  Thousands of voters reported machine 
 breakdowns as well as inaccurate totals in 42 states.  Even more disturbing 
 is the disparity between the vote count recorded by electronic machines and 
 the vote count provided by exit polls.  And over 90% of vote switches made 
 by machines were in favor of George Bush.  The technology that promised to 
 make elections more accurate actually offered opportunities for voting 
 manipulation that are thoroughly explored in this  film’s meticulous 
 indictment.  A variety of poll workers, attorneys, and monitors testify to 
 vote switching — but this crime was ignored by the American media.  
 Serious irregularities occurred in 13 states including Florida but media 
 commentators ignored it.  The film concludes by exhorting us to “Take our 
 Country Back.”  According to Thomas Paine, “The right to vote… is the 
 primary vote by which the other rights are protected.”\n\nWheelchair
