<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi, Sandy et al.: <br>
<br>
<br>
1. There needs to be an election for the County Council,
announced in an email May 24 and on our web site since then.
(This should take only about 5 minutes unless someone wishes to
volunteer to join our county council or dispute some of our
current members. <br>
<br>
<br>
*** WE NEED AT LEAST 20 SIGNATURES ON NOMINATING PETITIONS OF
PEOPLE REGISTERED GREEN IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY. IF YOU MIGHT NOT
BE ABLE TO ATTEND, COULD YOU PLEASE PRINT THE PETITION I EMAILED
JUNE 4, SIGN IT, AND GET IT BACK TO ME (EITHER A SCANNED IMAGE OR
BY USPS)? IF YOU CAN'T PRINT OR CAN'T FIND THAT PETITION, PLEASE
LET ME KNOW. If we have 20 valid signatures, we can have the
election. Otherwise, we need a plan to get the remaining
signatures we need. In either case, we could probably dispense
with this item in 5 minutes. <br>
<br>
<br>
2. Could we discuss and vote on a resolution something like
the following: <br>
<br>
<br>
* The Green Party of Santa Clara County supports the
following initiatives for electoral reform: Overturning Citizens
United, citizen-funded election and news, the US and California
Disclose Acts, the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (that
requires participating states to commit all their electoral votes
to the candidate who wins the popular vote), and Instant-runoff
voting (as outlined in the Wikipedia article on "Electoral reform
in the United States"). The Green Party of Santa Clara County
will collaborate with all other organizations working to pass
these issues including getting supporting resolutions passed at
local and state levels as appropriate. This includes in
particular Move to Amend and Rootstrikers. <br>
<br>
<br>
*** NOTE: These issues are discussed in the Wikipedia article on
"Electoral reform in the United States". (I've been editing that
article and could use input from any of you on how it could be
improved.) <br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks, <br>
Spencer <br>
<br>
