Subject: Voting machines tied to the Romneys could decide the election 
in Ohio

Dear Friend,

If this year's presidential election comes down to the electoral votes 
in Ohio, the deciding votes could be cast on electronic voting machines 
manufactured by a company - Hart Intercivic - with deep financial ties 
to the Romney family.

Hart Intercivic is majority owned by H.I.G. Capital which controls two 
of the five seats on the Hart Intercivic board. An investment fund with 
deep ties to the Romney family and the Mitt Romney for president 
campaign, H.I.G. Capital was founded by Tony Tamer, a major bundler for 
the Romney campaign, and it is one of the largest partners of Solamere 
Capital, an investment fund founded by Tagg Romney and Spencer Zwick, 
Mitt Romney's chief fundraiser from the 2008 presidential campaign. This 
makes the Romney family part owner of the voting machine company, 
through it's interest in H.I.G. Capital.

A 2007 study conducted by Ohio's Secretary of State showed that Hart 
Intercivic's touch screen voting machines could be easily corrupted.

I just signed a petition telling the Department of Justice to not let 
Republicans steal the election in Ohio with Romney-owned voting 
machines. Click on the link below (or copy and paste the URL) to find 
out more and sign the petition.
