website <http://www.greengov2010.org/><BR>><A href="http://www.greengov2010.org/" target=_blank>www.greengov2010.org</A> and take a look at who is featured as "candidates." You<BR>>will see that the site features the two Republican candidates and the<BR>>undeclared Democratic "candidate" Jerry Brown. It does not include declared<BR>>Green Party candidate Laura Wells. Please send a polite email (see example<BR>>below) asking them to include Green Party Candidate for Governor Laura Wells<BR>>along with the other featured gubernatorial candidates on their website.<BR>>Emails can be sent to Warner Chabot, the Executive Director of CLCV at<BR>><mailto:<A href="mailto:wchabot@ecovote.org" ymailto="mailto:wchabot@ecovote.org">wchabot@ecovote.org</A>> <A href="mailto:wchabot@ecovote.org" ymailto="mailto:wchabot@ecovote.org">wchabot@ecovote.org</A>.<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>In 2000 CLCV refused to even talk to the
Nader 2000 Campaign about why they<BR>>were refusing to interview him for endorsement consideration. They have<BR>>consistently ignored Green Party candidates over the years. Now this.<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>The site has a section titled "Additional Candidates" that states:<BR>>"GreenGov2010 will profile additional candidates as the election approaches,<BR>>or as they become viable candidates for election (for example, if a<BR>>candidate previously unprofiled on this site reaches 10% in a credible<BR>>statewide poll)."<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>How do they expect candidates to become viable if organizations like theirs<BR>>don't tell the voters about them?<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>Please send them an email. The following is an example of some of the points<BR>>you may want to cover:<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>Dear Mr. Chabot:<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>I
am writing to request that you include Green Party gubernatorial candidate<BR>>Laura Wells ( <http://www.laurawells.org/> <A href="http://www.laurawells.org/" target=_blank>http://www.laurawells.org/</A>) as a<BR>>featured candidate on your GreenGov2010 website along with the other<BR>>candidates already featured. GreenGov2010 states that it "will profile<BR>>additional candidates...as they become viable candidates for election." I<BR>>ask, how will they become viable candidates if good organizations like yours<BR>>don't let voters know they exist?<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>The Green Party is the largest single political party in the world and is<BR>>qualified on the California Statewide ballot. Since 1990 the Green Party has<BR>>fielded candidates in nearly 600 races in California and has won nearly 200<BR>>seats. The Green Party is a viable political party, our candidates
are<BR>>viable.<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>CLCV claims to be the "non-partisan political action arm of California's<BR>>environmental movement." If CLCV is truly non-partisan then demonstrate that<BR>>by including all of the declared candidates for governor that are running on<BR>>ballot-qualified tickets. At the very least, include the candidate of the<BR>>political party that has served as the electoral response to the global<BR>>environmental crisis since 1972.<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>I kindly request a response to this email,<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>Sincerely,<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>(your name)<BR><BR></DIV></DIV></div></body></html>
