I believe that through immediate demands that benefit the vast majority, we will be able to expand our ecological & workers party to reform our state and eventually our country along the Green Party’s major tenets. I’ve been involved with on the ground activism and education funding, and I believe that I can expand our party and chapter into a new era of Green electoral success.

I’m familiar with several forms of Social Media, including Slack, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Tumbler, GooglePlus, GoogleDocs, Instagram, Pinterest, WordPress, SnapChat, Discord and Reddit, currently moderating the Nevada Green Party community on Reddit. My goals are to see Single-Payer Health Care, Equal Rights an end to Systemic Racism and an end to endless war in my lifetime.

Our online primary has now closed. Howie Hawkins & Angela Walker have won well over the 50% of the votes needed to win in the first round of Nevada’s ranked choice vote. Nevada’s delegates to the Green Party’s National Convention are now pledged to vote for Howie Hawkins & Angela Walker in the first and all subsequent rounds of voting.

Our state executive committee elections are around the corner and we are looking for passionate and dedicated individuals who are interested in co-creating a revolutionary state party.

The Nevada Green Party structure is not hierarchical. We believe in a circular model of shared governance, where co-leadership, participation and direct democracy are valued.

The executive committee works together to ensure the success of the party as a political entity within the laws set by legislation and the secretary of state, facilitates and empowers local leadership and candidates for local and state office, coordinates state and national events, and empowers and coordinates with local chapters.

We know there is a lot of work to be done to build our party and we know that many of you are busy with jobs, families and other activities. We appreciate the time you are willing to give to the cause. As a member of the executive committee you are accepting a meaningful leadership position that we expect will be taken seriously. You are a voice and a representative of our party.

Of course, there is an expectation that you will get work done. Our meetings will be monthly either online or face to face. More frequent meetings will happen as needed. Many hands make light work. If we are all putting in a little time each week, we will get a lot accomplished and not have any one person feel burdened and overwhelmed.

We are part of a resistance movement that aims to bring equality, democracy, human rights, and a healthy environment to our communities. We strive to work towards solutions that reflect our 10 key values and our party platform. We strive to be inclusive, knowing that we are working for a better world for all people. We hope to educate and empower those joining us with empathy and always remember that it is Love that calls us to this important work.

I ask people that all the time. I even have the ‘old school’ Voter Registration Forms that have Green Party listed as an option, for people to fill out. There was a time there, when the Voter Registration Forms were revamped, and didn’t include the option to register as a Green Party member. That happened right after ‘The Great Voter Purge of 2016’.

Also during this time, if one wanted to register as a Green Party member online, one had turn oneself into three shades of pretzel, just to get to the option and to add insult to injury, even though you were listed online as a Green Party member, your Voter Registration Card said Independent.

Now I have no problem with the Independent Party, but I’m not one of them. I want to be listed as the Party I have chosen to pledge my principles and values to, the Green Party.

As an aside, I registered with the Democratic Party in Nevada in 2019, with the sole purpose of Caucusing, then going to Convention, for Bernie Sanders. Enter ‘Pandemic Mode’ and of course, ‘Democratic Party shenanigans’, and I re-registered with the Green Party, as well as asking for a mail-in ballot, to all future elections. When I got my new Card it said Green Party on it again. Double YAY!

Now it has come to pass, with ‘The Great Voter Purge of 2016’, the Green Party was made non-viable in the state of Nevada. From 2016 forward, we were well on our way, to accruing the necessary signatures, to become viable again and … ‘Pandemic Mode’ hit. No gatherings, no events, no people! How are we supposed to get the required signatures on our petition, so we can be on the ballot, if we can’t be less than 6 feet away from someone? I know right?

The Nevada Green Party Executive Committee, is asking for ballot relief, from all the proper authorities. Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, Nevada State Attorney Aaron Ford and of course, Governor Steve Sisolak (whom I voted for).

I have Tweeted, Facebooked, LinkedInned, CounterSocialed, Mastodonned and Discorded, to get some attention to this. I may have to stand on the intersection of Hwy. 372 and Hwy. 160, with a sign, just to get this issue the attention it deserves.

Every United States Citizen is supposed to be able to vote, for whomever they choose. As a Green Party member in the state of Nevada, if my chosen candidate isn’t on the ballot, how can I vote for him or her?

Isn’t that some kind of Voter Suppression? Don’t fall prey to the myth that there is only the Duopoly, because it’s just that, a myth and a highly propagated one at that.

So, if you’d like to help me out a little bit and if you live in the state of Nevada, click the link and register as a Green Party member, then vote for the Party that supports raising the Minimum Wage, the Green New Deal, Medicare for All and whole lot more, that will benefit you the people and the earth.
