{news} Appeals For Help In Petitioning for McKinney and for Nader

[Mike DeRosa]

The Ballot Access Committee of the GPUSA would be open to put forward 2k-3K
for hiring petitioners.  Is anyone interested? Can we identify some people
who are interested?
Sincerely,
Mike DeRosa

How much is the Nader campaign paying petitioners?

I'm not wealthy, but I would be happy to pay into a fund that would  
compensate petitioners for McKinney at a comparable rate.  It's a sad  
commentary (to me) that petitioning for our progressive candidates may  
be coming down to a bidding war.

Of course, Nader's values are green, but his presence on the ballot  
does not support our CT candidates running on the Green line the way  
McKinney's would.

Just my 2¢.

Ronna
