Subject: [VoteThornton] Shut out!

        On. Sept 1, 2006, Gov. M. Jodi Rell's campaign said that the Governor 
"strongly believes that Mr. Thronton deserves a place in any debate."

On Sept. 22, 2006, Gov. M. Jodi Rell's campaign announced that Cliff 
Thornton would not be included in gubernatorial debates. Campaign 
manager Kevin Deneen said the Democrats did not want the Greens to 
participate. Derek Slap, the spokesman for DeStefano, said that it was 
the Republicans fault.

They both lied. Clear as day.

The Thornton for Governor campaign and all the people it represents has 
been effectively shut out of the debates. And not only that, they did it 
on a Friday so it runs in the least read news cycle.

We are calling on all Green Party members and sympathizers to contact 
their state elected officials, the Rell campaign (860) 232-7355, the 
DeStefano campaign (203) 752-0545 and all newspapers to protest this 
injustice.

We are formulating plans to determine what our next approach should be. 
We will not take this sitting down, but we want to be sure that we use 
this moment to unite people and not divide people or be seen as radical 
outsiders.

This is a travesty to democracy, and we need to use this to our advantage.

Thank you all for your continued support, and I implore and urge you to 
voice your discontent with this decision, as soon as possible.

Peace,
