Clean Elections Advocate Briefs U.S. Lawmakers on Problems and Remedies
Columbus, OH — This week, Ohio gubernatorial candidate Bob Fitrakis accepted an invitation from the Congressional Progressive Caucus to come to Washington, D.C. to brief federal lawmakers on the electoral injustices that took place in Ohio during the 2004 campaign season. He and fellow electoral reform expert Harvey Wasserman addressed both the many ways Ohio's votes were compromised and the ways that these problems could be fixed through legislative remedies.
Fitrakis also met separately with three Members of Congress in preparation for a documentary that he is producing on electoral reform issues.
