{news} New London results

[Ronna Stuller]

Thanks, Charlie.  Unfortunately for us, the Dems raised and spent  
record dollars (their top vote-getter had raised $25,000 by first  
reporting), and, in the absence of burning issues, voters leaned  
toward the comfortable.  The One New London Party, which burst onto  
the scene 2 years ago and got 2 councilors elected on a lower taxes,  
anti-eminent domain platform, is down to 0, and the party's future is  
uncertain.

One big positive for us is that 2 of our 4 candidates were previously  
not involved in the NLGP and represent (different) relevant  
communities that we hope will provide some good opportunities for  
growing the Greens here.

Needless to say, we are here to stay.

Peace, Ronna
