There is a .htaccess file that handles the rewrites:

http://code.google.com/p/theelectionleafletproject/source/browse/trunk/docs/.htaccess

So it should just be a case of allowing rewrites in your apache config files.

My local apache httpd.conf file (Apache 2 / OS X) looks has the following in it:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
       DocumentRoot /data/vhost/electionleaflet/docs
       ServerName localhost.electionleaflet

       <Directory "/data/vhost/electionleaflet/docs">
           Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
           AllowOverride All
           Order allow,deny
           Allow from all
               php_value include_path
".:/data/vhost/electionleaflet/includes:/data/vhost/electionleaflet/includes/PEAR:/data/vhost/electionleaflet/config"
       </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

And the live server (Apache 2 / Ubuntu) has this mess:

# Live site
<VirtualHost *:80>
       ServerName www.thestraightchoice.org

       ServerAdmin fra...@flourish.org
       DocumentRoot /data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/docs

       CustomLog "| /usr/sbin/rotatelogs
/data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/logs/access_log 86400" combined
env=!log_discard
   SuexecUserGroup tsc tsc

   php_value include_path
".:/data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/includes:/data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/includes/PEAR:/data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/config"

       <Directory "/data/vhost/thestraightchoice.org/docs">
