{news} RE: [CTGP-elections] Who is an Elected Green in CT?

[David Bedell]

Ken Keskinen switched back to Democrat, though it didn't get as much 
attention as Joyce Chen's switch.  Ken had only become a Green for that one 
election.  Judy & Kim Herkimer could tell you more.

Juan Perez is currently the only elected Green in office in CT.  Altho a 
registered Green, he was elected on the WFP ballot line.  His term ends 
soon, and he did not run for reelection.

After he steps down, the only elected Green will be Hector Lopez; he was 
just elected Constable in New Canaan with 6 write-in votes and will assume 
office next week (sorry you didn't get him into the press release!)

Peace & Power,

David
