Electile Dysfunction Documentary Exposes Corruption and Flaws in Voting System

Media activist groups Take Back The Media and People to People TV have joined together to produce Electile Dysfunction: Take Back Your Right to Vote, a documentary film chronicling voting issues leading up to and throughout the 2004 elections and how ordinary citizens can effect change to make sure votes count.

In a cross-country journey, four video-journalists set out to investigate the bugs, quirks, and shortcomings of the new electronic voting machines that 30% of Americans will use while voting this year. On the road, the journalists discovered the problems with electronic voting machines – while significant – are only a symptom of a larger issue of vote theft and corruption in the United States.

Electile Dysfunction: Take Back Your Right to Vote features interviews with sources like investigative journalists Greg Palast and Danny Schechter, Author William Rivers Pitt, Computer Scientists and Security Experts Dr. Avi Rubin and David Dill, Jim Hightower, Congressman Robert Wexler, California Secretary of State Kevin Shelley, former Alabama Governor Don Siegelman, former U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, the ACLU of Florida, and the Miami-Dade Election Reform Coalition. Animated scenes produced by Take Back The Media provide levity and light-hearted humor illustrating concepts and action items included the film.
