I lost all respect for the third party types when former Libertarians tried to takeover the GOP. You can all go hang as far as I am concerned, especially if you can’t go collect a few signatures…exposing you guys as nothing more than fringe elements of society whining because it’s “not fair”. Life is not fair. Get over it. Work for success, not hand outs.

The North Carolina Green Party is in the process of collecting the 1000 signatures needed to get our presumed presidential candidate recognized as a write-in candidate. If you like to help contact me and I will send you the petition form with instructions. schwandes@gmail.com Subject: write-in petition

Thanks to all! Kai Schwandes

In 2000, Ralph Nader failed to qualify as a write-in for president in North Carolina, which is a shame, since in the 5 states in which he was a declared write-in candidate, he got a huge write-in vote. Those states were Georgia (13,273 write-ins), Idaho (12,292 write-ins), Indiana (18,506 write-ins), and Wyoming (4,625 write-ins).
Nader in 2000 is the only presidential candidate in U.S. history who ever polled as much as 1% of the presidential vote in any state as a write-in.

There really needs to be a significant write-in candidate for a statewide election. That will certainly make the BOE think about ballot access a bit more, especially if it takes them days to count votes that an optical scan machine can’t.

Will the appeal lawyers have enough brains to note that SEPARATE – IS – NOT – EQUAL ???
