The petition-watching folk at Know Thy Neighbor point out a useful feature built into their front page. If you want to make sure that your name or that of your liberal area buddies do not fraudulently appear on the petitions to rescind same-sex marriage in 2008, you can get notification.
In the upper right corner is a Get notified if someone in your town signs it! box. Fill in an email address and click go. On the next screen, you fill in a first name only, your town and ZIP code.
Then if you are opposed and your name appears, you can notify the Secretary of State. Likewise, if the housebound old guy down the block or the lesbian couple next door suddenly are on the list, you can verify with them.
There has been considerable fraud in such petitions in this and other states. Know They Neighbor seems all for good citizenship.
