WASHINGTON, Jan. 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Committee to ReDefeat the President, a federal PAC better known by the name of its popular ReDefeatBush.com Web site, is organizing "Rallies for the Republic" on Monday, Jan. 3, in Boston (7:00 PM at Fanueil Hall) and on Tuesday, Jan. 4, in San Francisco (7:00 at the Herbst Theater).

On Monday ReDefeatBush will announce the final hearing on Capitol Hill before Members gather for a joint session on Thursday at 1:00 to consider and count the electoral votes in the 2004 Presidential election. Starting at noon on Thursday ReDefeatBush will be holding a rally entitled "Defend Democracy, Support the Challenge" in Upper Senate Park next to the U.S. Capitol. Rev. Jesse Jackson has been invited and is expected to attend. Confirmed attendees include Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Columbus OH School Board member Rev. Bill Moss, Bev Harris of Black Box Voting, which has uncovered compelling evidence of fraud in Volusia County, FL, former Congressman Peter Deutsch, whose term concludes tomorrow, voting rights activist Granny D, and Clint Curtis, the Florida whistleblower who has testified that he was asked by Congressman Tom Feeney's to create the software necessary to modify the results of electronic voting machines.

Preparations are underway for a public forum on Wednesday afternoon at the Capitol at which Deutch will publicly question some of the key witnesses to activities that may have surpassed the boundaries of normal partisanship and crossed over into illegal activity.

ReDefeatBush's first Rally for the Republic is in Boston on Monday, Jan. 3, at 7:00 PM at Fanueil Hall. In addition to Lytel, former Green Party Vice Presidential candidate Pat Lemarche will speak, as well Tom Barbera, one of the Massachusetts electors; Faye Morrison, a Selectwoman in Ayre who has worked with Election Protection in several states; Donna Palermino, attorney who will speak on the legal aspects of the challenge and Jonathan Simon, a lawyer and investigator who has done original research work on the 2004 election results.

On Tuesday, Jan. 4, Lytel will be at the Herbst Theater in San Francisco at 7:00 Herbst Theater along with some recent graduates of the Electoral College in California and Emily Levy, who will report on her work with statistician Richard Hayes Phillips about anomalies in the results in Ohio. Music and humor will be provided by Electile Dysfunction. Linda Bryket's 24 minute film on what happened in Columbus, OH on election day entitled video the vote will be shown at both events.

ReDefeatBush has a quarter page advertisement on the Federal Page of the Washington Post on Monday and this week is putting out a 20,000 piece mailing asking for financial support for its activities.
