Green Party Calls for PA Presidential Primary in February
2024
On November 12, thirty elected delegates and friends from
seven PA counties voted to hold a Green Party of PA Presidential
Primary in February 2024. The plan which was proposed by the GPPA
GreenWave Team included the following
dates:
January 1, 2024,
Last date for voters to register Green in order to vote in the Green
Party of PA Presidential
Primary;
February 1, 2024, Last date for
presidential candidates to be approved for the Green Party of PA
Presidential Primary ballot;
February 1,
2024, Deadline for Green Party voters to apply for an absentee
ballot;
February 13, 2024, Green Party of
PA mails absentee ballots to
voters;
February 15, 2024, Green Party
of PA Presidential Primary virtual voting
begins;
February 29, 2024, End of
virtual voting and last date for postmark on absentee
ballots;
March 4, 2024, Final date for
receipt of Green Party of PA Presidential Primary absentee
ballots;
March 13, 2024, Report results of Green Party of PA
Presidential Primary to candidates and the media.
This will be the first time for the Green Party of PA to use
virtual voting in a Presidential Primary. During previous presidential
elections, GPPA relied upon county caucuses (like Iowa) to choose its
presidential candidate.
The Green Party of PA, https://www.gpofpa.org,
is an independent political party which stands in opposition to the
two corporate parties. GPPA candidates promote public policy based on
the Green Party’s Four Pillars: grassroots democracy, nonviolence,
ecological wisdom, and social justice/equal opportunity. For further
information about GPPA, please email [email protected].
