{news} 4th CD nominating meeting 12/16 in Norwalk

[David Bedell]

I sent the following notice to the Secretary of the State.  Note that the meeting will be SUNDAY 12/16 (not Saturday 12/15, as previously mentioned).

We are trying to get Cindy Sheehan (http://www.cindyforcongress.org ) or John Nirenberg (http://www.marchinmyname.org ) as keynote speaker.  Richard Duffee (http://richardduffee.blogspot.com ) has offered to run, and we will entertain other nominations.  Whatever we decide, if we put a candidate on the ballot in 2008, we expect it to be binding this time, not conditional as in 2006.

David Bedell
