The King Street Patriots, through their True the Vote project, have developed a savvy and effective private sector poll monitoring and election integrity operation.  I have profiled them at Pajamas Media.   The Houston Press offers this largely accurate profile.   As the article states, the model that True the Vote deployed in Houston is going to go national in 2012.  What is the model?  It all starts with involved citizens.  Add election law knowledge, and a command of their rights under state law.
