13. Just thinking along these lines myself! Good idea!
Here is the issue that got me thinking...Party Platforms. IF we can manage to NOT get bogged down in infighting... (And that is a huge IF) we should attempt to educate the folks writing the party platforms. It is too late for resolutions for most states and platforms are better anyway.
I agree about voter registration databases. That seems a no brainer for both camps.

As I hear it, we have mostly two camps in the reform category. The HCPB folks who want absolutely no machines and the machine/opscan paper trail contingent. Audits are needed on both sides but meaningful audits seem to have a lot of places for holes. Chain of custody issues must also be focused on.
That is my short list. I wish the two camps had solid, complete resolutions ready to go within the two lines of thought so we could get these docs into both party platforms and (even better) state laws.
