<DIV>Hi Warner,<BR><BR>Thanks for taking the time to talk with me. I'd
like 15 minutes to give the Greens an update about a lot of momentum towards IRV
at your May 6 meeting. I have met with a number of San Jose city council
members, League of Women Voters chapters, and the Santa Clara County Democratic
Party central committee, among other interested individuals and organizations,
and there is much to report. I believe the Greens have a vital role to
play in bringing IRV to San Jose and Santa Clara County.<BR><BR>I look forward
to meeting you and the Greens. Here's a link to a blog posting about some
recent IRV
activity<BR>http://www.newamerica.net/blog/political-reform/2009/good-week-political-reform-10964<BR><BR>cheers,<BR>Blair<BR><BR>Blair
