URGENT: SIGN TODAY FOR GPMN BALLOT ACCESS!!


Dear Green Party of Minnesota Member:

We have yet to reach at least 2,000 signatures for Howie Hawkins and Angela Walker, Greens for President and Vice President, to appear on the MN ballot. So, the deadline to sign the online petition is extended through Sunday, August 16. If you are an eligible MN voter (not necessarily registered), at least 18 years old by November 3, and have not already signed then visit this link to complete the electronic petition: https://mn-petition.org/invite/hwgp.php

We must collect these signatures and file for office by Tuesday, August 18 for Howie and Angela to appear on the MN General Election ballot. Doing so is critical to maintaining and building the Green Party of Minnesota. The Green Party of Minnesota is currently a minor party, and we must run statewide candidates in 2020 (this year there are only 2 statewide races) to at least maintain our minor party status. Getting Howie and Angela on the MN ballot is crucial to running and supporting down ballot Green candidates in 2020 and beyond.

When viewing the petition you may notice the oath has some weird and outdated language about not voting in the primary. Though, if you voted in the MN Presidential Primary on March 3 and/or if you voted in the MN Primary on August 11, you are permitted to sign. The information you provide is not kept or used for any purpose other than to submit to the MN Secretary of State for Howie, Angela, and the Green Party of Minnesota to get on the 2020 November ballot.

So, if you haven't already done so, sign now (but definitely by 11:59 on Sunday, August 16) at: https://mn-petition.org/invite/hwgp.php

Additionally, we will be collecting in-person signatures and making phone calls through Monday, August 17. If you would like to assist with in-person collection or phone calling please contact MN Ballot Access Coordinator, Seth Kuhl-Stennes, at 612.219.5581.
