question

Mr. Moore,

I recently launched a website called Write the Vote, which tracks write-in campaigns nationwide. I found your write-in campaign website from 2008, and I’m wondering: Do you plan to run in 2012?

Thank you,

Austin Wright

hi, Austin! Well, I would need to be drafted! It was a very intensive two year journey . We do know That not all of the votes I received were counted. During the campaign, with the help of the national expert on ballot access issues Richard Winger, we forced several states to change their rules for write-in candidates. It was a very satisfying experience.

In Freedom,
Frank Moore

Gorgeous card!

We are still waiting for the US District Court in Washington DC to rule on whether write-in votes for declared write-in presidential candidates must be counted.

shucks, Richard!
Seems like a no brainer… Counting all the votes! Glad we were /are a part of the struggle /process!

“Just watched your presidential platform on youtube–Frank Moore 2012! I just remembered that I used to watch your show back in college and being completely confounded and titillated and scared–you’re a true shaman, Frank! I want to be on your show!”

Silly!

Frank moore!

hey frank moore, this is your young fan from Massachusetts that contacted you several years ago about the it just makes sense party. i like luver.com alot and your youtube videos are excellent! i, having been detached from your media for awhile, have found myself discovering that i have the same opinions as you when it comes to art and capitalism. i have a new youtube channel, its called doyoulikeboring. all the videos are improvisation. i am doing a sketch comedy show in the summer and will probably film it, and i like making videos a lot. perhaps i can make some videos for your media channel? and i have a band too, we are called Silly! i also became president of my class. this is something i think i read or heard you did in collage and almost won. i did win, and in my speech i said “i am going to say something non of the other candidates said, i love you!” and the class was touched enough to vote me in. i thought you would appreciate thatstory.

in peace, love, and justice

hi, Aaron! I indeed remember you! Of course I do!

I just checked your videos out. They are great! I remember when you and your companions did a video about Frank Moore the candidate!

I would show your videos on my cable show. But they are “edgy.” so we should wait until you are eighteen.

Re: Frank Moore’s health care plan & comparison chart!

Hi Betsy!

Here is that comparison chart I told you about, with Frank’s health care plan …

http://www.frankmooreforpresident08.com/healthcare-grid.htm

Let me know what you think!

Wow, Frank really does his homework.

My favorite part is this, under “Cost Containment”:

“Preventative medicine will cut costs. School meals should be part of the health system. Growing food in schools, and healthy meals in schools will cut medical costs and improve kids’ performance in school. This will also make schools more a part of their communities, increasing the overall health of the communities.”

Education, and integrating ecological values in school, are issues I really care about. He’s right on about making schools more a part of their communities.

My least favorite part is being taxed at 75% after $12k/year — or did I misunderstand that? Call me greedy, but I don’t want to be taxed at a rate above 40%. Of course, I make less than $12k/year, so it’s really my husband’s income I’m greedily protecting….

Thanks for forwarding the comparison. Frank’s plan is impressive, and I fervently hope it will come to pass in my lifetime.

Corey corrected Betsy on my tax policy which is:

I’ll do away with all tax deductions for over $12,000 income. Instead, there will be a flat tax of 10% on annual income of less than one million dollars for an individual and less than five million dollars for a corporation. But the flat tax will jump to 75% on annual income exceeding these limits.

so most people would pay at the ten percent rate, and the poor wouldn’t pay any income tax.

The campaign continues!

Thanks for the tally!

I never told you, and I never told the Libertarians, that I was a candidate for presidential elector pledged to two different presidential candidates. I was a Libertarian elector as well as one of your electors. That means I got more valid votes than any other Libertarian running for presidential elector. I just wanted to see if anyone in the Secretary of State’s office would notice. They didn’t.

you are a devil, Richard!

It was amazing how they made shit up but backed off when we did not go for it! The bottom line is they did not have a bottom line!

Frank Moore’s Votes — Official General Election Results for United States President

Federal Elections 2008
Election Results for the U.S. President, the U.S Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives

(put out by the Federal Election Commission, Washington, D.C.)

Official General Election Results for United States President
November 4, 2008

Frank Moore’s recorded votes*:

California 36
Georgia 6
Illinois 3
Kansas 2
Maryland 2
Utah 3
West Virginia 1

TOTAL = 53

*New York did not list any write-in votes specifically for Frank Moore. However, we are aware of a number of votes cast for Frank in New York City, because people told us personally that they had voted for him there. New York lists 3,613 write-in votes as “scattered” votes. So we know that some of these were cast for Frank Moore, but will never know the actual number.

“New York city habitually fails to count any write-in votes for the declared write-in presidential candidates. The Board says it is too much work to take down the heavy rolls of paper from the mechanical voting machines and look at them.” — Richard Winger, Ballot Access News

“The Hazards of Getting a Write-in Vote for President Counted”, October 31st, 2008
http://www.ballot-access.org/2008/10/31/the-hazards-of-getting-a-write-in-vote-for-president-counted/

– – – – – – –

The following states either did not count write-in votes for president, listed “scattered” write-in votes for President instead of counting them for specific candidates, or listed “scattered” write-in votes in addition to votes for specific write-in candidates. Frank Moore was eligible to receive write-in votes in these states, so some of these votes may have been for Frank:

Alabama 3,705
Alaska 1,730
Iowa 6,737
Nebraska 2,837
New Jersey
Oregon 13,613
Pennsylvania 8,180
Rhode Island 667
Vermont 1,398
Washington
Wisconsin 6,521
Wyoming 1,521

* * * * *

so in reality we probably got from one hundred to two hundred votes. This is amazing considering we spent just two thousand dollars in two years, all the blocks against write in candidates , not having “machines ” in each state, and my not traveling outside of California!
