REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS:


"...brilliant, terrifying..."
Mark Crispin Miller, Author, Fooled Again

"Powerful and persuasive..."
Howard Zinn, Author, A People's History of the United States

"'Uncounted...is information dense and utterly shocking...Regarding this documentary simply as preaching to the choir is a disservice...
The film stands out largely as a result of its highlighting the perilous nature of opposing electoral fraud in 21st Century America."

Bryan Newbury, DocumentaryFilms.net

"'Uncounted' touts several smoking guns pointed directly at its conclusion...alarming, but it's also empowering..."
Joe Scott, Greensboro News Record (Greensboro, NC)

"'Uncounted' is made in the spirit of Michael Moore's veracity to awaken the American public from its slumber on core issues....You may never take the holy voting process seriously again."
Gordon Glantz, Managing Editor, Times Herald (Philadelphia)

"As Americans are inundated with election coverage, its important to remember that the end result of all the campaigning is the vote, and as 'Uncounted' reveals, our votes are far from secure. An informed and energized public can go a long way to improving the accountability of American elections, and 'Uncounted' shows us how, as citizens, we can do our part."
Dan Bloom, Producer Bob Edwards Show

""This [film] is about taking control of the political process and taking responsibility for it."
Jim Dean, Chair, Democracy for America

“Very powerful. Clear and succinct. This film is urgent viewing if you care about democracy and the integrity of the electoral process.”
Robert Koehler, Syndicated Columnist, Tribune Media Services

“A vital and important work…. Uplifting, encouraging, optimistic….”
Brad Friedman, Investigative Journalist, BradBlog.com

“UNCOUNTED will blow you out of your comfort zone and call forth your deepest patriotism."

"...demonstrates that this is an issue that transcends partisan lines and touches all of us."
Joan Brunwasser, OpEdNews

“With great precision and emotional force, UNCOUNTED explores the disquiet many American voters feel about the health of their electoral system and explains why they are absolutely right to feel unnerved. But the film also offers a vital hope -- that by banding together and broadcasting their cause, citizens can confront the corruption and lack of transparency at the heart of their democracy and overcome it.”
Andrew Gumbel, Author & Journalist, “Steal This Vote”

“You’ve captured the essence of the new voting rights movement in America.”
Robert Fitrakis, Ph.D., Author & Journalist, “What Happened in Ohio?”
