This is from the Wiki bio of the SOS project candidate for Michigan. (Jocelyn Benson)

>>During the 2004 Presidential election, Benson was hired to develop the first nationwide Election Protection program for the Democratic National Committee. Benson selected, recruited, and trained Voter Protection coordinators in 21 states. The program resulted in deployment of over 17,000 trained election law lawyers.[3]

After working with the Michigan Democratic Party’s election protection effort in 2006,[3] Benson developed and supervised two statewide nonpartisan election protection efforts in Michigan in 2007 and 2008.[1] She worked with Michigan Democratic Party’s election protection effort in 2006. During the 2008 election, she was called to testify before the U.S. House Judiciary Committee,[4] where she called on Secretary Terri Lynn Land to ban the use of foreclosure lists to challenge voters’ eligibility on Election Day.[5] She is a frequent commentator on voting rights and election law on local news and radio broadcasts.[3][6][7][8]

In 2007, Benson worked with several groups to successfully block the closure of a Secretary of State branch office in Buena Vista Township, Michigan. The U.S. Department of Justice concluded that the closure of the office would violate the Voting Rights Act.[9]

Benson is currently an Assistant Professor of Law at Wayne State University Law School, where she teaches Election Law. She is also an appointed member of the American Bar Association’s Standing Committee on Election Law.[1] Being a member of the committee inspired her to create the Richard Austin Center on Election Law and Administration. The Austin Center, incorporated in October 2008, seeks to work with local election administrators to promote innovations and improve the election administration process in Michigan.[2]

Prior to her appointment as a Professor, Benson served as a law clerk to the Honorable Damon J. Keith on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. From 2002-2004, she served as the Voting Rights Policy Coordinator of the Harvard Civil Rights Project, a non-profit organization that sought to link academic research to civil rights advocacy efforts,[1] where she worked on the passage of the federal Help America Vote Act.[3]

In late 2009, Benson’s first book, Democracy and the Secretary: the Crucial Role of State Secretaries of State in Promoting Democracy, will be published by Ashgate. The book highlights best practices of Secretaries from throughout the country and seeks to inform voters about how Secretaries of State from either side of the political spectrum can work to advance democracy and election reform.[3]<<

Exactly. And the Tea Party had better be aware of it and hit the ground to defeat anyone the dems put forth. Door to door with facts about the dirty tricks.

Really? Sounds more like Soros just dropped some petty cash off to make it look as if there were support when we all know there isn’t.

The only way to avoid a violent conflict with them is going to be a 1783 level of state sovereignty.

There is no way people who insist on their individual freedom can live with people who insist on their enslavement.

Because it’s not about healthcare - it’s about socialism.

“This woman has been groomed to steal elections for democrats.”

I think SOS is why the Democrats are so bold & Obama is flipping off the citizens of the US. They have a plan to make sure they COUNT the votes (besides the vote fraud that will be rampant).

“He who votes decides nothing; he who counts the votes decides everything.” Stalin
