Brian (and Sandy): Brian went to Candidate & Campaign
working group. Barry _______ gave a pitch to the working group
but spent little time with the Plenary otherwise. He gave a
good pitch about calling people to getting signatures for the
gubernatorial and other statewide candidates. He suggested
getting a list from the Secretary of State. The forms for that
will be sent to us on Dec. 28 -- will be on-line at the Green
Party web site. Must organize the effort: Must collect 10,000
signatures between Dec. 27 and Feb. 20. (Sandy) <br>

The final item was Mike's proposal, but Brian couldn't

<font size="4"><font face="Cambria">SUMMARY: There is only one
option for each of items 31-33 and 35-37. Those options all
seem sensible, and the group agreed to instruct our SGA
delegates to vote for that option. Item 34 was candidates for
Governor. People had questions and concerns about both
candidates. There was a consensus for letting the SGA delegates
decide for themselves, with a suggestion to perhaps vote first
for Rodriguez, second for nobody, and third for Alexander.
Alexander got such poor support, because someone said he had
officially run before but had not campaigned: If you are going
to ask people to spend time collecting signatures to get your
name on the ballot, etc., you must campaign. </font></font><br>

We have five SGA delegates, and we can instruct them
to vote differently. In this case, my inclination is
to instruct 3 of our delegate to vote for Rodriguez
first and Alexander second and the other 2 delegates
to vote the opposite. However, I could easily be
persuaded otherwise. <br>

<br>
Deacon Alexander ran before but did not run a campaign. <br>
<br>
<br>
Luis Rodriguez at one time was trying to run as a candidate for both
the Greens and Peace & Freedom. Sandy will stand aside
regarding Luis. But we look bad if we don't have a candidate. <br>
<br>
<br>
We let the SGA make up their own minds, prefer that at least some
abstain. <br>
<br>
<br>
All others: We support the single option. <br>

* Longer term, I think we should work to recruit
exactly one candidate to run for different offices
while coordinating with other third parties under a
slogan like, "Vote -- but not for bribery." <br>
<br>
<br>
* For next year, what do you think about working
with the League of Women Voters and other third
parties to organize a series of debates for offices
that rarely get much attention in the media these
days? I think we can help build the party and
generate more interest in the primary -- and our
candidates -- by helping organize such debates. We
need also a good outreach program, notifying the media
of the events, inviting all candidates for a given
office, using an empty chair for any who do not show,
and using on-line resources like "Ballotopedia" to
summarize the kind of people who should vote for each
candidate or initiative. <br>

best attended Junior State in over 10 years. We had 3 tables:
One was for making buttons. That was the best table in the
house, from Caroline's perspective. One of the other tablers
registered Green. The kids weren't old enough to vote but asked
good questions & wanted to talk. There from 1:05 to after 5
PM. Jim and John came. Caroline ran the button machine. Jr.
State is the most fun. $1 for a button -- made $42 (gave away 4
at the beginning). <br>
