4) Make a VotersUnite! T-shirt to wear (optional).
5) Look up your county official's contact information on your state's election web site. If you can't find it on the web, you can call your state election office to find out.

6) Hand deliver Myth Breakers to the election officials in the counties you signed up for. Tell them, "I'm with VotersUnite.org, a non-partisan group of citizens concerned about electronic voting. We want you to have the information you need to make wise decisions about our election systems, and we're delivering copies of "Myth Breakers" to every local election official in the country." You could also use a cover letter, such as this sample from West Virginia Citizens for HAVA.
7) Use the link in our email (step 2) to let us know when it's delivered.
Email us if you want to manage the project in your state or are willing to help mail copies that can't be hand-delivered.
Help get the word out by posting this message about the project on blogs and sending it out to your emailing list.
VotersUnite! has no funding. So, we need you and/or your group to bear the cost of making and distributing (possibly mailing) the copies within your state. However, we have Excel files with the contact information for each of the county officials in nearly every state, and we can provide the information to you in whatever format would be helpful: mailing labels, Excel, Word, etc.
Democracy is not something you believe in
or a place to hang your hat,
but it's something you do.
You participate.
If you stop doing it, democracy crumbles.
