HI ,



Well, the Democrats have succeeded in knocking Howie and Angela off the

ballot in two states: Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. In either case, it was

based on bait-and-switch misinformation from the partisan hacks that run

the elections offices that misled activists about the proper paperwork,

which was then used to rule against us on technicalities in the courts.



It wasn't because we didn't do the work. We collected _three times_ as many

signatures as required in Wisconsin. We collected _twice as many_

signatures as required in Wisconsin. In either case, each of our petitions

stood up to scrutiny.



It's clear that people want to see the Green Party, especially Howie

Hawkins and Angela Walker, on the ballot.



Because we know that what the Democrats and Republicans are offering is not

good enough, we are drawing the line in the sand and declaring our

political self-determination. We are demanding a sound Green New Deal,

Medicare for All, economic relief during the pandemic and after it, peace

initiatives and the end to the new nuclear arms race that could annihilate

us all...not just the most vulnerable.



Our political self-determination is our demand that this system must

respond to the increasingly loud voices coming from the working class. We

demand system change, nothing less.



Let's be honest: these are legitimate setbacks. But in both Wisconsin and

Pennsylvania (and other states), we'll be filed as write-in candidates, so

that people who demand change will have a method to make those demands.



We won't take this lying down. We mourn for a moment, and now it's time to

organize.



We will be pushing hard in these write-in campaigns, to ensure that the

Green state parties of Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and others have a strong

foothold to rebuild with an influx of new supporters. Our organizers are

ready, and now they need your help to put resources in their hands.



We're launching an aggressive digital and phone/text campaign to state our

case directly to the voters. But this is going to take serious resources.



WILL YOU MAKE A CONTRIBUTION TODAY TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THE RESOURCES TO

FIGHT BACK, AND TO FIGHT IN THE COURTS LATER TO ENSURE OUR WRITE-IN VOTES

ARE COUNTED? [8]



Our objective of political self-determination continues today. We're

inviting you to become part of this resistance against bipartisan hacks who

actively and shamelessly impede democracy.



Let's fight back together. Please give what you can today [8].



In solidarity,



TEAM HOWIE/ANGELA
