Was it likely anyone else would win?

6/13 DENT VICTORIOUS!
Harvey Dent wishes to thank all of the people of Gotham who helped turn a grassroots movement into a resounding success on Election Day.

Harvey Dent’s landslide victory means great things for the city of Gotham. Because of your belief in Harvey Dent, Gotham now has a District Attorney who will make war on crime and corruption.

The real work, however, is just beginning. Harvey Dent now moves on to City Hall, where every corrupt force will try to tie his hands and weaken the people’s will to destroy organized crime and snuff out corruption. The movement to take back Gotham still needs your help.

We hope you continue your support of Harvey Dent. More than ever, he’s going to need every citizen on his side to ensure victory over the destructive forces that are wreaking havoc on our city.

Thanks Keith!

Watch video

You can’t take a walk in Gotham these days without seeing the enormous outpouring of support for Harvey Dent.

Lawn signs with the familiar slogan “Take Back Gotham” are visible on almost every street in the neighborhood. Window placards look down upon almost every shopping district.

And everywhere, you can see Dent supporters, young and old, of every color and background, passing out flyers and talking to Gotham voters.

And it all started with a phone call.

You put a smile on my face. Hope you’re not superstitious

Superstition relates to the day — Friday 13th June. We already know that’s when “Gotham Tonight” will premier, maybe The Joker has something in store for them?

Other Viral Updates

A new email from Harvey Dent:

It’s been an incredible last few weeks. Ever since the vicious smear campaign collapsed and Harvey Dent’s remarkable courage at the hostage crisis at Rossi’s Deli, our campaign has ridden a wave of support I have never seen in all my political life.

Our Headquarters reopened and thousands of volunteers show up here every day, every night, fighting for change. Fundraising has reached incredible heights, with over 100,000 Gotham citizens contributing their hard-earned money in support of Harvey Dent’s vow to take back Gotham.

We’ve expanded our reach, opening branches in neighborhoods that haven’t seen political campaigns take them seriously for decades. And we’ve harnessed the incredible grassroots support by sending volunteers to knock on doors throughout the city. Amazingly, we will achieve our two millionth door knock sometime in between now and Election Day.

Harvey Dent has committed himself to lead the charge to take back our city, face down the criminal and corrupt and restore hope for our future.

Now, we need your help. We need to get out the vote!. And we need you to vote yourself. If you can’t make it to the polls, go to http://www.gothamelectionboard.com and find out how you can vote online. Working together, we will take back Gotham!

Ibelieveinharveydent has updated with a message from Harvey Dent for his supporters that stuck with him throughout the slur campaign. Download Audio Message. Zdravko has also told us about an email he received from the Harvey Dent campaign:

What a difference a week makes.

Last week, our campaign looked like it was on its last legs. The media was burying us, and urged us to withdraw for the sake of Gotham City. The smear campaign, with its vicious lies against Harvey Dent, spread fear, uncertainty, and doubt about the one man who can save Gotham.

But now - thanks to people like you - things look very different. Thousands of people gathered in the Dent for DA headquarters for its reopening. And I saw something different in the crowd. Something has changed. The “White Knight Incident,” as it has become known, is allowing people to see Harvey Dent differently. Not just as a man with the guts and the toughness to change Gotham. But as a symbol of the best of Gotham City - a Gotham we almost forgot existed.

But that Gotham City does exist. It’s a Gotham where ordinary people can walk out their door at night without fearing for their lives. It’s a Gotham where the good can triumph over the evil. It’s a Gotham where justice isn’t just for the rich and powerful, but for everyone.

With your help, we’ll bring back that vision of Gotham. On Election Day, everything changes. Harvey Dent will take back Gotham City — thanks to the hard work of people like you.

See you on election day!

4/24 HARVEY DENT THANKS SUPPORTERS AFTER SMEAR CAMPAIGN COLLAPSES

The outrageous smear campaign against Harvey Dent collapsed completely today when all charges against Dent were dropped. Listen to the audio of Harvey Dent speaking just after he was cleared.

OFFICIAL HEADQUARTERS REOPENING DRAWS THOUSANDS

It was a day full of cheers, happiness, and excitement as the Dent for DA headquarters re-opened. Thousands of Gothamites filled the offices and spilled out into the streets. Harvey Dent gave a rousing speech and promised to “never forget the people who stand with us against the enemies of Gotham City.”

LETTER FROM SGNT FRANK NOTARO TO THE PEOPLE OF GOTHAM

Francis Notaro was one of the original “smear cops” and was the hostage-taker in what has become known as “The White Knight Incident.” Here, he writes an open letter to Gotham.

To everyone in Gotham,

I’m writing this from my jail cell. It’s terrible in here, and a lot of my family and friends are too scared or ashamed to visit me. I don’t blame them.

But Harvey Dent did visit me. Me, the guy who spread horrible lies about him. And pointed a gun at him.

Maybe it wasn’t my gun that did it, but I can’t help but feel responsible for the death of an innocent woman.

Her name was Mary Breitup, and she was sitting in the wrong place at the wrong deli that terrible day.

I wake up in the middle of the night, wishing somebody had been able to warn Mary, to get her out of that place before all hell broke loose. But nobody did. I know it’s wishful thinking. Who would have warned her? Who knew what was about to happen?

Now, I have to live every day with this terrible guilt. And the Breitup children have to grow up without their father or mother. I break a little every day thinking about it.

I’m not asking for forgiveness. But I regret every single thing that I have done in the last year.

And when I think I can’t go on any more — when I think I don’t want to go on any more — I think of the man who showed more courage than I could ever imagine having. Harvey Dent. Nobody can bring back Mary. But if Gotham elects Harvey Dent, maybe things will change. Maybe the mob won’t own the city anymore. Maybe fewer cops will turn dirty. And maybe fewer innocents like Mary will die.

Frank Notaro

Gotham Voter Survey http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-promotional/audio-downloads/2008-04/gotham-voter-survey/ http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-promotional/audio-downloads/2008-04/gotham-voter-survey/#comments Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:49:03 +0000 Batman http://batman-dark-knight.moviechronicles.com/?p=244 I recently got a call to my cell phone, via the number I submitted to the Acme Security Systems website, asking me to take part in a Gotham Voters Survey. The call asks your opinions about Harvey Dent with a rating of 0–9 for each question, they are very probing questions and ask how Harvey’s mental state, failure to file tax returns and links to organised crime affect your view of him.

At the end of the call they provide a number to give to friends if they wish to take part — 8777776197.

Download the recorded call with secret message at the end

This corresponds with an update on CCFABG,

Message from the Webmaster:

You may be wondering why I haven’t updated this site recently. Well, you wouldn’t either, if you were facing legal actions like slander charges and defamation of character accusations.

I can’t afford to get sued for hundreds of thousands of dollars, especially now that everyone who supported this site is “unavailable” or “can’t remember” they had anything to do with the site.

If I weren’t waiting for my last paycheck, I’d go on a little “vacation” myself. In fact, if you don’t get any more updates from me in the next few days, it means I did just that.

This whole smear campaign has been a real SOURCE of consternation for me. I’ll be glad when it’s all in the past. And you know what? I just might vote for Harvey Dent.

William Bucksworth-Haven, Webmaster Extraordinaire

In the source code for the page is this comment:

<!-- <ACCESS: 164938> -->

Which, when entered as answers on the survey reveal a secret message.

Edmund has also sent in this message (thanks!) that he received from Jim Gordon (jim.gordon@gpdmcu.com):

My friend,
Indictments are about to be handed down. If you don’t want your name on one, we’ll need your full cooperation in an upcoming operation.

In case you haven’t heard, we are struggling with a bit of corruption in the department. I’m not about to let the Gotham PD collapse in on itself, so we’re taking action. We’ve identified a group of offenders that need to be apprehended. Problem is, most of these cops are hightailing it out of the city. But a C.I. just like you just gave us some information on their last known whereabouts. Now all we need is to catch them. This is where you come in.

Consider yourself on deck. I’ll contact you next week, and let’s just say it’s in your best interest to play along. County’s not a place you want to spend the rest of your life.

Lt. Jim Gordon, MCU

Conference Cancelled, Hostage Episode Ensues http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-news/2008-04/conference-cancelled-hostage-episode-ensues/ http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-news/2008-04/conference-cancelled-hostage-episode-ensues/#comments Sun, 13 Apr 2008 21:42:58 +0000 Batman http://batman-dark-knight.moviechronicles.com/?p=239 From the Harvey Dent website,

Today’s press conference was unexpectedly cancelled due to a hostage crisis located at a nearby deli. In a selfless move, Mr. Dent entered the premises, exchanged himself for a woman who was being held at gunpoint, and negotiated the successful release of the remaining patrons in the restaurant. Watch this site for updates. We will release more details when they become available.

Download the MP3 Audio of the situation

The hostage situation was instigated by desperate cop, Frank Notaro, he takes a woman hostage before requesting witness protection for him and his family. Harvey Dent exchanges himself for the woman before Notaro is arrested.

This all took place at Rossi’s Deli — Notaro’s madness was tripped in the event of seeing his partners (Cisneros) death in a car explosion, also killing his entire family — all whilst leaving a message on Rossi’s answer phone. Download the voicemail message and listen to the scene

For some back story on Frank Notaro I recommend reading our coverage.

Glenn Barhyte’s email, accessible through the security pages at Gotham Police, has two new messages from Frank:

Deal’s Off
I saw it. With my own eyes. Best partner I ever had. Dead. What the hell’s going on?

Thank’s For Nothin
Looks like you’re out having breakfast or something. I knew I couldn’t trust IA to keep my family safe. I’m going to Rossi’s Deli to take care of Condoloro myself, don’t try to stop me.

Live & Streamed Harvey Dent Press Conference, Sunday 3pm (EDT) http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-promotional/gotham-election/2008-04/live-streamed-harvey-dent-press-conference-sunday-3pm-edt/ http://www.moviechronicles.com/batman-dark-knight/batman-promotional/gotham-election/2008-04/live-streamed-harvey-dent-press-conference-sunday-3pm-edt/#comments Thu, 10 Apr 2008 07:27:55 +0000 Batman http://batman-dark-knight.moviechronicles.com/?p=235 I Believe in Harvey Dent has updated, there will be a LIVE event:

4/9 PRESS CONFERENCE TO BE STREAMED LIVE ON SUNDAY APRIL 13TH AT 3:00 PM (EDT).

Harvey Dent realizes that the slanderous and untrue charges trumped up by a mysterious group never seen before in Gotham politics has distracted from the real issues facing Gotham — how to make our city safe again and fight the crime and corruption that is endangering our future. I Believe In Harvey Dent will hold a press conference on Sunday, April 13th at 3:00 pm (EDT) for an important announcement regarding the campaign. The audio of this event will be streamed live on this website.

CLARIFICATION The Gotham Machinists Union has not “withdrawn their endorsement” of Harvey Dent for DA. Their spokesmen clarified that the endorsement has merely been “suspended” for the time being. The Harvey Dent campaign looks forward to the continued support of the Gotham Machinists Union.

DONUT SUPPLIER NEEDED The Harvey Dent campaign lives and breathes off its volunteer crew. Hundreds of Gotham citizens have joined the campaign to change our city. But this week, our donut donor stopped donating donuts to us. And as anyone who has worked on a campaign knows, if the volunteers are the life’s blood of a campaign, then donuts are the life’s blood of the volunteers. If any of you know of a donut donor who would like to get involved in the campaign to take Gotham back, please have them contact the campaign. Thank you.

Thanks to Bryan and Will for sending this in so quickly.
