There are so many worthwhile petitons out there, so I was wondering about this. I also worry soemetimes that I may have signed the same petion more than once via differnt links. Here are a couple important ones http://www.usalone.com/impeach.htm http://www.usalone.com/bolton.htm I'm sure most of you know these links but just in case; http://www.workingforchange.com/activism/index.cfm and http://www.usalone.com/ for more....I will have to peruse the site, and perhaps attempt making one. We have a lot of folks on here, and it is the best way to get a point across sometimes, joining together. Althogh individual actions are important too. I was thinking maybe we could all send postcards-around June 9th to plead for meaningful elction reform-(Investigations, prosecution, Impeachment? punishment) and a verified vote system- to coincide with; Verified Voting - Lobby Day • Washington, DC Thursday June 9 "Join the Coalition for a national lobby day sponsored by NJ Congressman Rush Holt, who has writtien bill HR-550." at least we could support them and join them in spirit this way, I would encourage using orange posterboard cut to post card size or just put -perhaps with orange something that will definately indicate your concern. We could send them to your congress persons. I also wrote about it and have other important links, and some pics etc. on my blog here jarnocan.blogspot.com

http://www.gopetition.com/ GOOD - gives you the option of uploading photos,For a small donation you can have your petition added to the home page, CERTAIN changes can be made to the petition at a later date including changing the photos but this has to be reviewed first. BAD - advertising and smilies alongside can put potential signators from signing, annoying 'comments' box but this can be disabled

http://friendsoffreedom.org/user.php - great site, I paid to join this one although you don't have to. However, I got a letter back from my MP for signing the peition and then when the bill passed got a large tabbed notebook filled with all the finer details, I was quite shocked, pleasantly. http://www.petitionspot.com (link to How to creat peitions as well) http://www.gopetition.com (has great link to very detailed instructions on writing a peition) http://www.ipetitions.com/index.html (link how to Careae Peitins as well)

Another good site is http://www.petitionthem.com/?sect=detail&pet=1763 Before you get to create your petition you will have to fill out a form answering questions such as 'what is your desired outcome of the petition' The site will then e-mail you back telling you whether or not your petition has been accepted.This weeds out any petition that might be deemed 'unsuitable' Unfortunately, this also means that you cannot submit a petition immediately.In fact it can be a few days before they get back to you!

http://thiscause.org/p/signup.php This site is unique in that signers are expected to create a signature with their computer mouse! Definately worth a look! Unlike some of the other petition sites this one states that under no circumstances are you allowed to change the text on your petition after it has been submitted.

The following may be of interest to animal protection groups seeking to distribute petitions or to gather written representations in support of campaigns: - Useful Contacts: * APASFA - World Petitions http://www.apasfa.org/peti/index2.shtml * AnimalConcerns.org - Includes e-mail lists, message boards and forum http://www.animalconcerns.org/ (One thing about animalconcerns..org it started out with a bang but hasn't kept up with many of its dead links and replacing them. I've written to them asking them to please update, I don't know if they have the staff to help with that or not or what the situation is there.)

Changes to Petitions at The Petition Site
4 years ago

It is now possible to add a photograph of subject matter onto your petition at Care2's Petition site.This is not to be confused with uploading a picture of yourself on a 'photo-petition'

When you create your petition you are now able to use the 'basic editor' the same as when you are posting a message onto a topic at care2.You can either upload the image, or copy and paste it into the text box. For this - the image has to be already on an internet website. If it is an image from your picture folder (ie a photo you have taken) you will have to upload the photo onto a web account such as photobucket.com.

Pictures with a photo have a much bigger impact.I am adding the link to a recent petition as an example

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/793667281

Other changes at The Petition Site include being able to view the signatures all at once and new signatures will upload immediately.

Jacalyn, I have read over and over again if you sign a petition for the same "cause" but on a different website it still counts and is sent in. They are allsent in at different times and the signatures are all compiled /added up together.  I have researched and researched this.

The "ONLY" exception I have found is very few petitions stating if you already signed one time ,that is all you can do.  It states it so look for a statement like that.

I sign many petitions as a lot of us do for the same exact cause but on another website.

If you already signed and it wont except more than the original signature ,it typically should come up with an error staing you have already entered your information/signed or something like that.

I wondered about that at one time. I am not perfect so I can always be wrong but this is what I have found out and I saw your post with what I'm sure many people wonder....

Great topic to bring up..... Thank You!
