>A group of neo-nazis are trying to form a newsgroup on Usenet called
>rec.music.white-power, so that they can get their message of hate out to
>young people using the Internet.  Newsgroups are public discussion areas
>on the Internet and their formation requires enough support from the
>Internet community.
>
>EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU HAS ONE VOTE when it comes to creating a
>new Usenet group. I hope you will vote NO and thereby tell these Nazis you
>don't want their stuff on the net. Below is the procedure, please repost
>my plea and get the NO vote out.   This is my personal opinion.  If you
>want to see the official call for votes, you can read in news.group or ask
>me for a copy of the notice calling for votes.
>
>Do _not_ vote twice - that would constitute voting fraud.
>
>HOW TO VOTE:
>
>Send E-MAIL (posts to a newsgroup are invalid) to:
>
>        music-vote@sub-rosa.com
>
>This is an impartial, third-party vote taker.
>
>Do not REPLY to THIS message, if you are trying to vote.  Please do not
>assume that just replying to this message will work. Check the address
>before you mail your vote.  Your mail message should contain only one
>statement:
>
>        I vote NO on rec.music.white-power
>
>I REALLY HOPE YOU VOTE NO!
>
>Vote counting is automated.  Failure to follow these directions may
>mean that your vote does not get counted.  If you do not receive an
>acknowledgment of your vote within three days contact the votetaker
>about the problem.  It's your responsibility to make sure your vote
>is registered correctly.

>Here's what Canada's George Burdi, of the neo-Nazi Heritage Front, had to
>say about this vote, on February 21, on his RESISTANCE mailing list:
>
>        "There is a call for votes
>        coming on rec.music.white-power in the next week
>        or so, and you will be notified in a special issue of
>        RREN exactly what to do.  FOLLOW THE
>        INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER.  Let me be
>        perfectly blunt and state that we have more than
>        enough "net-nazis" to win this thing hands-down.
>        But every one of you must vote YES!  And just
>        voting yes means nothing unless you do it properly.
>        So you have been forewarned.  The instructions
>        are coming to your email box soon, and they
>        are not complicated.  Just follow them as told,
>        and we will have a WP music newsgroup finally!"
>
>If Mr. Burdi's confidence disturbs you, please give this letter the
>_widest_ possible distribution, and help us deliver the largest NO vote in
>the history of UseNet.
>
>If you would like more detailed information on why you should vote no,
>check out http://nizkor.almanac.bc.ca - although it should be noted that
>the Nizkor Project has no connection to this personal plea."
