Jed Alpert of Rights-Group has teamed up with Working Assets to create a Voter Protection Immediate Response Network should any problems arise during this November 7th midterm elections. You may remember that Rights-Group used their Immediate Response Network technology for PFAW's Save The Court campaign. It was very successful with uprising opt-in rates.

Much like PFAW's efforts Working Assets hopes to deliver a text message or place a call straight to your phone with a short and easy action that could help save the election, should something seem fishy. Why? Because there is not enough time to send out so many emails and because the issue#039s are of the utmost urgency Working Assets would like to reach you wherever you are.

The concerns and actions are everything from making simple phone calls to he local election offices to keep the polls open to compensate for delayed poll openings to asking people (via text message) to show up in person to witness poll closing procedures.

This may also include interviewing people who had problems voting with Camera phones and then posting it directly to the web! Which is an AMAZING IDEA if Working Assets has a no brainer mobile video upload infrastructure in place (can someone say Shozu or Nakama or Comvu?)
