The historic Red Vic Movie House on Haight Street will play host to four screenings of the new film, UNCOUNTED: The New Math of American Elections, on Sunday, March 2. UNCOUNTED is a feature-length documentary that exposes numerous threats to the core of our democracy - our right to vote.
UNCOUNTED, written, produced, and directed by multiple Emmy award-winner David Earnhardt, examines how the fraud that changed the outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater election fraud in 2006 and now looms as an unbridled threat in 2008. San Francisco has seen the threat to the integrity of the election process first hand having just settled a lawsuit with an electronic voting machine manufacturer. UNCOUNTED addresses the issue of electronic voting as well as other systemic problems that plague our nation’s elections and thus disenfranchise voters - Jim Crow-like voter suppression, voter intimidation, undervoting, provisional balloting, and the the privatization of the election process.
The San Francisco screenings of UNCOUNTED are sponsored by Green 960AM. Additional support comes from Voting Rights Task Force, a group committed to secure, open, and verifiable elections, and Election Defense Alliance, a democratic, participatory organization bringing together election integrity activists from across the country.
