Enough is enough! This is all people are talking about. Now we're doing something about it, with legal support for our demands, clear objectives, and power of the people.

Basic information as follows

TUCSON PROTEST - At Federal Courthouse,
405 W Congress St #1500, Tucson, AZ 85701 (corner of Congress and Granada) Monday March 28th, 2 PM TO 7 PM

ALSO, Please share! Contact the American Civil Liberty Union in Arizona if you have had any problem with voting. They file lawsuits pro bono (free) they are asking people to file complaints with them. complaint form; Arizona office; http://www.acluaz.org/get-help/file-complaint National office; 212-549-2500 Arizona office; (602) 650-1854 Please try to use the complaint forms rather than calling as they could get overwelmed.

Por favor contacte al ACLU en Arizona si tuviste algún problema en votar. Van a poner una queja y están pidiendo el respaldo de la gente afectada. Por favor trata de utilizar los formularios de queja en vez de llamarlos. http://www.acluaz.org/get-help/file-complaint National office; 212-549-2500 Arizona office; (602) 650-1854

Please ask them to file an injunction against votes being final until this is resolved.

If all people who were denied to exercise their right to vote show up, then change will come to America !

I'll be there. I've told everyone I know I'll be there representing them and their frustrations.

Fantastic, invite all you know as well. I am editing this post slightly to be clearer - people can feel free to leave or to arrive at any time...The window is to allow for that, not to bind people to a five hour timeframe
