Comparing Green Party and Green-ish Presidential Figures

Posted on November 5, 2008 by iwilder

So, due to the sheer luck of which counties publish their election resuls, and how thoroughly, I can come up with the following comparisons to put Green Party votes in perspective. First of all, in 2008, Cynthia McKinney received 825 votes in Suffolk County. That is .13% of the vote. (Totals may increase on this […]

ML: Can we lobby Foley/ a D State Senate?

Posted on November 5, 2008 by iwilder

The Foley victory makes the State Senate a spilt in NY (have they won outright control?),  and I am reminded of a campaign call I received a couple of weeks ago from Foley’s campaign coordinator–who told me to send his well-wishes to Roger Snyder, whom he said he knows well.  In the brief and cordial […]

Night Owl Coverage of Green Election: Greens for Greens

Posted on November 4, 2008 by iwilder

I am not making any promises, but our friend Roger Snyder – the Chair of the Green Party of Suffolk – is a bit of a night owl. And, he is blogging on a new system. I think he may stay up later than us. (Am I still awake? What am I thinking?) So, if […]

Obama’s President: Next!

Posted on November 4, 2008 by iwilder

KW: Ian really, really, really wants me to take down the mushy picture of the Obama’s. But, I can’t help it. Those children are adorable, and I have resisted this whole, vigilant, Green Party campaign from celebrating the good parts of the Obama phenomenom. So,  ;)~  to Ian. (And, everyone else who will complain or […]

Note: Cynthia McKinney will be on the ballot in New York on the Green Party line. She is next to the sunflower symbol on Row H.

The AP has got to be kidding – ignorant diss towards third parties

Posted on November 2, 2008 by iwilder

Forgetting the Abolitionists, and the Woman’s Suffrage Party, the AP has chosen to characterize third parties as spoilers, whose only real successes have been Strom Thurmond and George Wallace. Gee. Thanks. Interestingly, this article does mention Ralph Nader and Bob Barr, but completely leaves out Green Party Presidential Candidate Cynthia McKinney, whose poll numbers at […]

it’s dumb to vote for Obama if you’re a Green in New York State

Posted on November 2, 2008 by iwilder

Am I the only one who’s not drinking the kool-aid? from resistance is fertile That said, I think Obama is going to be a great president, within the sad, small, shallow confines of what constitutes a “great president” in our downtrodden little pathetic crap democracy. Obama is a real person, a statesman, someone with a big […]

Movement in lawsuit against Dick Cheney to fix Electoral College for 2008

Posted on November 2, 2008 by iwilder

Our Green Party colleague Asa Gordon, from the DC Statehood Green Party, is brilliant. In 2000, he filed a lawsuit as a non-attorney, pro se citizen, to try to intervene in the Florida recount. He was actually able to argue before a federal judge on the matter. And, for the 2008 election, Asa Gordon has […]
