"MSNBC has launched a news project with a variety of left-wing special interest groups to boost their Election Day coverage and help viewers experiencing problems at the polls.
One of the groups involved in MSNBC's "Election Protection" project is the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now. ACORN has been involved in rampant voter registration fraud across the nation this election cycle and is actively supporting Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama for president."
Other groups include: LaRaza, U.S. Pirg, NAACP, the Human Rights Campaign, the National Gay and Lesbian Law Association, Sierra Club and the Service Employees International Union

MSNBC is no more than the leftist branch of the news media. We need to do everything we can to see that this miserable outfit is boycotted - and that groups like ACORN get their Federal funding pulled.
And, the ones not spinning, are VOTING!
Where do we go to file a complaint?
Too bad there is not way to delete it from my programs—LOL. I never watch it, however it would be nice to know it doesn’t even exist in the line up. Hopefully one day this will be true without me having to delete it. It is so far left now I can;’t imagine there is that great of an audience.
good idea
Haha!
Good one.

The nonpartisan Election Protection coalition was formed to ensure that all voters have an equal opportunity to participate in the political process.
Through our state of the art hotlines: 1-866-OUR-VOTE (administered by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law) and 1-888-Ve-Y-Vota (administered by the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials Education Fund), this website, and comprehensive voter protection field programs across the country, we provide Americans from coast to coast with comprehensive voter information and advice on how they can make sure their vote is counted.
Made up of more than 100 local, state and national partners, this year’s coalition will be the largest voter protection and education effort in the nation’s history.
Throughout the election process, our volunteers - more than 10,000 strong - will be entering data and information into OurVote live (developed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation), an interactive environment painting the most comprehensive picture of election irregularities from the perspective of the voter available anywhere. Unique in the excitement of this political season, Election Protection focuses on the voter - not on the political horse race - and provides guidance, information and help to any American, regardless of who that voter is casting a ballot for.
This site was made possible through generous donations including from the Women Donors Network.

Looks like they are gearing up to be the Pravda of the US should Premier Obama take power.
They already spout his line 24/7 they might as well be the ones he picks as the state media when the time comes.
They will be broadcasting from a bath house in San Francisco.
