Re County Polling Updates

The County Polling on ballot measures has been updated with the latest
proposals that qualified for the ballot.

History:

Jan. 1 -- The first polling is circulated with three ballot measures (2 on
Constitutional Convention + 1 on Open Primary).

Jan. 18 -- Polling updated with one addition (Public Utility Voting 
Threshold)

Jan. 26 (this update) -- One addition (Auto Insurance)

The current County Polling instructions and reports contains all five 
measures
and can be downloaded at

        http://cagreens.org/plenary/packet.html

The last two added measures were reviewed by the Green Issues Working Group
that recommends the GPCA oppose both.

         ** PLEASE PARTICIPATE **

The next General Assembly of Delegates is scheduled for March 6th-7th in 
Santa
Clara County.  Having County Polling at this time allows the GPCA to take
positions earlier than has been usual practice concerning June Primary 
ballot
measures.  If GPCA positions are not decided by County Polling before the
Plenary, the undecided items will be placed on the Plenary Agenda by
previously adopted procedures.  To the extent decisions on these ballot
measures can be made by County Polling, agenda time will be created for 
other
items.

Please be sure that your county participates by submitting votes by 
Wednesday,
March 3, 2010 (also the last day to register and submit delegate lists 
for the Plenary).

Detailed instruction are in the 'County Polling instructions and 
reports' document.
