Putting the email I received here about the elections, so we have an archived copy.
Quote:
It's been an incredible last few weeks. Ever since the vicious smear campaign collapsed and Harvey Dent's remarkable courage at the hostage crisis at Rossi's Deli, our campaign has ridden a wave of support I have never seen in all my political life.
Our Headquarters reopened and thousands of volunteers show up here every day, every night, fighting for change. Fundraising has reached incredible heights, with over 100,000 Gotham citizens contributing their hard-earned money in support of Harvey Dent's vow to take back Gotham.
We've expanded our reach, opening branches in neighborhoods that haven't seen political campaigns take them seriously for decades. And we've harnessed the incredible grassroots support by sending volunteers to knock on doors throughout the city. Amazingly, we will achieve our two millionth door knock sometime in between now and Election Day.
Harvey Dent has committed himself to lead the charge to take back our city, face down the criminal and corrupt and restore hope for our future.
Now, we need your help. We need to get out the vote!. And we need you to vote yourself. If you can't make it to the polls, go to www.gothamelectionboard.com and find out how you can vote online. Working together, we will take back Gotham!

Nice, I chuckled at the assumption that DA election is a no contest.

What about the voter IDs. Are these randomly generated or coded messages? Probably just random.
