<p>I don't really know the particulars, the specifics, but I wonder why anyone would have to become part of another county/city's Green Party in order to vote. I know that each county/city/town has its own particular conditions, circumstances, etc. I wonder
if it's ok to address that concern since it is about this specific voting process.</p>
<p>Yolanda Catzalco. Just commenting; maybe voting could be extended because of so many people having difficulty voting; by a day or two. I know it's difficult to vote if you're not too computer literate/savvy. </p>

<p>There is no button on this email to click to vote. I can't figure out how to get into the new system, and I don't understand why we are being asked to join the San Joaquin County party as part of the process.</p>
