HIĀ ,
The race is on to get enough votes to keep the Green Party on the ballot in
various states, and we need to contact about 7 million voters to do it,
with only one week left to do it.
What are the stakes? If state Green parties can't make their thresholds on
Election Day, it means having to collect hundreds of thousands of
signatures when ballot petitioning windows re-open next year. It translates
to thousands and thousands of dollars in hiring petitioners, setting up
systems, paying for gas and supplies...you can imagine how stark the
situation is.
* NEW YORK NEEDS ABOUT 200,000 VOTES TO STAY ON THE BALLOT.
* MASSACHUSETTS NEEDS ABOUT 100,000 VOTES TO KEEP ITS BALLOT LINE.
* MISSOURI NEEDS ABOUT 57,000 VOTES.
* OREGON NEEDS OVER 20,000 VOTES.
These are just a few of the states we need to work hard to hold the line,
but also, there are many golden opportunities if we perform well:
IF HOWIE AND ANGELA GET JUST 2% IN TEXAS, THE GREEN PARTY OF TEXAS WILL BE
ASSURED BALLOT ACCESS ALL THE WAY TO 2030.
IF THEY GET 5% OF THE VOTE IN MINNESOTA, THE GREEN PARTY OF MINNESOTA WILL
HAVE A BALLOT LINE AS A MINOR PARTY.
The way this happens is if we talk to voters. To get to 5 percent of the
national vote, which means that states would also achieve their vote
thresholds, we need to convince about 7 million voters to vote for Howie
and Angela.
We can do it via phone and texts and thereby extend the reach of canvassers
on the ground, but it will take money to do it.
Can you kick in a donation today to help us reach our goal? Any amount will
do, but most people give about $27. [8]
With one week to go, we can ensure that more and more people are aware that
there's still one campaign fighting for a Green New Deal, for Medicare for
All, and for peace and justice. We can let them know that there IS a moral
choice they can make, instead of simply staying home in disgust.
Please give what you can today [8].
In solidarity,
TEAM HOWIE
