Dear Echampion, ************************************************************************ Help the RNC fight for fair elections! Follow this link to contribute online or to print out a contribution form: https://www.econtributor.net/Contribution/Contribution.cfm?AID=PNCELAKMZHHA ************************************************************************ Al Gore is attempting to reverse the outcome of the election by any means necessary. That includes tampering with the Electoral College itself. Democrat operatives have begun clandestine background checks on Republican electors already certified from the 29 states George W. Bush won on November 7. They are looking for ways to persuade -- or intimidate -- Republican electors into changing their votes. With Florida's 25 electoral votes, George W. Bush has a total of 271 electoral votes. (270 are needed to win.) That means a shift of three would give Al Gore a majority -- and there are people in Gore's camp who seem to think private investigators can sway enough votes to win. This is outrageous. Already Al Gore has flooded Florida with lawyers, attempting to win in court what he lost at the ballot box. He is pushing for partisan, rigged recounts in Democrat controlled counties. He is demanding that Florida's election laws be junked so Democrat judges can impose a brand new, ad hoc system to accommodate the Democrats' frantic legal maneuvers. Now the Gore camp is tampering with Electors. Al Gore will do anything to win. I've attached a Wall Street Journal report on the Democrats undercover assault on Republican electors. Read it and draw your own conclusions. This election should be OVER. Because Al Gore refuses to accept the results, the fight continues. The RNC is working to defend the integrity of the vote, not only in Florida but also in other close states like Oregon, Wisconsin and New Mexico as well. We will fight this to the end, and we are confident we will prevail. But we need your help. We realize that we have asked a great deal from you in the past few days, but the future of our country may well be at stake. We need to squelch this effort to steal Republican votes in the Electoral College in its infancy. The Democrat Electoral College tampering is being led by Bob Beckel, who you may remember as Walter Mondale's campaign manager in 1984. Below is Mr. Beckel's contact information. Please contact him and express your outrage at his low handed tactics.

Your efforts could help make the difference: 1) If you haven't done so already, take a minute to make a contribution to the RNC to help defend the integrity of the electoral process -- a process George W. Bush and Dick Cheney won fairly on November 7 and which must not be overturned by Democrat dirty tricks now Follow this link to contribute online https://www.econtributor.net/Contribution/Contribution.cfm?AID=PNCELAKMZHHA If you'd rather give by check, follow this link to print out a form: http://www.rncfc.org/econtributor/mailcheck2.htm 2) Call, e-mail and write your local elected officials, Democrats and Republicans.

SIMPSON, TOM HAMBURGER and LAURIE COHEN Staff Reporters of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL (Beginning of article omited). ......One battle-tested Democratic consultant has even begun a quiet intelligence-gathering operation that could aid a last-ditch Gore strategy in the Electoral College. Bob Beckel, who managed Walter Mondale's 1984 Democratic presidential campaign and has close ties to Mr. Christopher, has been checking into the background of Republican electors, with an eye toward persuading a handful of them to vote for Mr. Gore. If Mr. Bush eventually prevails in Florida but wins none other of the most closely contested states, he would have 271 electoral votes. Three GOP defections could make Mr. Gore president. "It is information gathering on my part, using my own network," Mr. Beckel said, confirming an operation he set in motion days after the Nov. 7 election. "I call on mostly Democrats, but some Republicans, too, and ask. 'Who are these electors, and what do you know about them?' I just wanted to know who these electors are." Mr. Beckel, who owns a political-analysis business based in Arlington, Va., said he is working independently, "on an ad-hoc basis," and hasn't yet contacted any electors directly. "I wouldn't do that without first informing the Gore campaign," he said.
