Assemblymember Alberto Torrico (D-Fremont) is hosting two events this weekend at the California State Democratic Convention in San Jose worth checking out. Tonight, he's hosting "Every Californian Counts!", a casino night hospitality suite inviting Democratic leaders and activists to "urge the Governor and the legislature to pass a budget that leaves no one behind." It starts at 10 p.m. in Suite B-4 at the convention center. (As an aside, I think it's wonderful that the budget crisis has finally united two of my greatest passions: saving the state from societal collapse and poker!) Tomorrow afternoon, Torrico is hosting a free screening of "Uncounted" at the Marriott Hotel Willow Glen Room at noon. Uncounted, according to the promo, "is an explosive new documentary that shows how the election fraud that changed the outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater fraud in 2006 -- and now looms as an unbridled threat to the outcome of the 2008 election. This controversial feature length film by Emmy award-winning director David Earnhardt examines in factual, logical, and yet startling terms how easy it is to change election outcomes and undermine election integrity across the U.S. Noted computer programmers, statisticians, journalists, and experienced election officials provide the irrefutable proof."
