Lynn Landes is the publisher of TheLandesReport.com and a freelance journalist who writes about politics, health, and the environment.  She is frequently interviewed by TV, radio, print, and online news media.

Since 2002, Lynn has been  one of the nation's leading researchers and analysts on voting integrity issues.  She has been a speaker at voting rights conferences across the country.  Lynn was the first to advocate one standard of voting for both politicians and the public - totally transparent voting.  She is an opponent of voting machines, absentee/early voting, and the secret ballot.  In July 2004, Lynn filed the first federal lawsuit of its kind, suing local, state, federal authorities to ban the use of voting machines and absentee ballots.  She appealed the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, who let stand the lower court decision to deny her standing. In a 2005 article, Plan B: Organize Parallel Elections & Signed Ballots, Lynn called on citizens to organize parallel elections in response to the total lack of transparency in U.S. elections.  In several states, activists did just that.

Lynn's numerous articles on the right to vote, include: Elections In America - Assume Crooks Are In Control, Faking Democracy - Americans Don't Vote, Machines Do, Two Voting Companies & Two Brothers Will Count 80% of U.S. Election, and Did Networks Fake Exit Polls?  Her work has been featured in the books, Hacked and BlackBoxVoting.  Lynn also appears in several documentaries including: Got Democracy, The Right To Count, Stealing America, and her own, Voting 101 and The Fix Is In

In the past, Lynn has been an environmental news reporter for DUTV in Philadelphia, hosted her own radio talk show on WDVR in New Jersey, and was a weekly commentator for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) radio program.  Lynn is also the founder of Zero Waste America, an Internet-based environmental research organization. Her eco-articles have been featured in print, online publications, and the books, Pollution: Opposing Viewpoints and Softly On This Earth.  Lynn was in a series of interviews on environment and health issues on WebMD.  Her 1998 report, State of the Nation’s Waste, was reported throughout the U.S. and internationally.
