<div dir="ltr">Eric,<br><br>First and foremost, if somehow, we are so organizationally incapable that we manage to fail to maintain our ballot status based on registration alone, we are seriously, seriously, seriously doing something very wrong. We should never have to depend on any one single candidate gaining over 2% of the vote to retain our ballot status. Not being able to maintain 1/3rd of 1% of the total registered voters would be dramatic and compelling evidence of catastrophic incompetence on a collective basis by us as "leaders" in the party.<br><br>Secondly, as can be seen from the SOS web site below, and as I stated previously, in every election, we have 7 or 8 possible ballot lines through which we have the opportunity to gain that 2% of the statewide vote and retain our ballot status. Doing it via a candidate that runs for Controller or Insurance Commissioner is no less valid than doing it via whatever candidate runs for Governor. Again, if we are unable, in any of these races, to field a candidate capable of pulling 2% of the statewide vote, given our historic results, catastrophic incompetence would be a generous description of the situation. It would represent a historic reversal from the previous election, where down ballot, our female candidates (who tend to run a point or two better than our male candidates for equivalent offices, historically) for Treasurer and Comptroller pulled 6.5% and 5.6%, respectively, of the vote.<br> <br>To me, this makes it clear that meeting the 2% threshold is not a substantive and credible argument for endorsement of candidates. The decision needs to stand on its own merits as a tool for building the party.<div><br></div><div>Finally, the current system of maintaining qualified status via statewide vote was established when all parties were able to ensure that a single designated candidate was present on the fall general election ballot. It is constitutionally suspect in an environment where minority parties have no influence over who runs on their ballot line, or how many candidates run and potentially split the vote. It is entirely reasonable to think that, at some future point, we might have half a dozen different candidates running for a single statewide office on the Green Party ticket. If each of them garnered under 2 percent of the vote, but they cumulatively garnered over 5% of the vote, and as a result we somehow lost our ballot status, I think we'd have a good argument to make that tying ballot status to the results of an individual candidate rather than our cumulative vote as a party for a particular office is constitutionally suspect.</div><div><br></div><div>From the CA S.O.S. site:</div><div><div><br></div><div><h3 style="font-size:1.17em;margin:0px;padding:0px;color:rgb(0,52,102);font-family:sans-serif;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial">Maintaining Its Qualified Status</h3><ul class="gmail-dblSpc" style="margin:0px 0px 1em;padding:0px;list-style:none;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13.6px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><li style="margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:40px">Once qualified, a political party maintains its qualified status by:</li><li style="margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:40px">Retaining registrants representing at least 1/15 of 1 percent (0.067%) of the total state registration (Elections Code §§ 5101, 5153);<span> </span><strong style="font-weight:bold">and</strong></li><li style="margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:40px">Having one of its statewide candidates (running for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Controller, Treasurer, Attorney General, Insurance Commissioner, or United States Senator) receive at least 2 percent of the entire vote of the state for that office at the June 3, 2014, gubernatorial primary election (Elections Code §§ 5100(a), 5151(b));<span> </span><strong style="font-weight:bold">or</strong></li><li style="margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:40px">Retaining statewide registration equaling at least 0.33 percent of the total number of voters registered on the 154th day before the primary election or the 123rd day before the presidential general election.

We need not wait for filing deadlines, we can make it clear to potential candidates that, if they wish to pursue consideration for endorsement, they need to be prepared to seek it much earlier in the process. If everyone considering a run for office has the chance to seek an endorsement, and the process is seen as open and not foreordained in favor of a particular candidate, and people have the opportunity to consider whether or not they want to continue pursuing a candidacy that lacks the endorsement of the state party prior to making the effort of actively running for months, and working to qualify for the ballot, then I think much of the argument over this would dissipate.</div></div><div><br></div><div>But, again... NOTHING prevents people from ignoring the fact that the state party has made an endorsement, and running for Governor as a Green anyway, and even should the party itself gain enough organizational heft and strength to make our endorsement a meaningful advantage, it is very likely that, in doing so, we make the value of a Green label under a candidate's name on the June ballot that much higher in general, and thus continue to attract multiple candidates for high profile races like Governor. Plenty of Democrats and Republicans seek these offices, despite actively fighting for their state party's endorsement, and failing to obtain it. Rank and file members of each party know that all that a state party endorsement represents is the opinion of the people in the room at the time a vote was taken, and that said opinion can substantially differ from that held by the general membership at large. This is even more the case at this point for the CAGP, when the party as a whole lacks the ability to maintain regular contact with the great mass of registered voters, and their relationship to us, as organizers, is extremely tangential.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Thomas Leavitt</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 16, 2018 at 5:53 PM, Eric Brooks <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:brookse32@hotmail.com" target="_blank">brookse32@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Our fundamental reality is that if we can focus on getting out the vote for only one Green in each race we will get more votes for that race. There is no mechanism that allows us to legally claim that we got 2% of the vote because two candidates got 1% each.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm abstaining, but I'll point out that we're not going to have one candidate, we're going to have however many appear on the ballot. Further, whatever decision we make here will be functionally irrelevant to upwards of 95% of the voters
casting a ballot for one of our candidates (or any of them), as they'll never hear about it. The "resources" that the state party can provide to any endorsed candidate are almost non-existent. City Council candidates in my town regularly raise upwards of $20,000
on an individual basis; that exceeds what I believe was our entire budget for the state last year, approaches our entire "aspirational" / Plan A budget for this year (based on what I recall seeing), and certainly exceeds whatever financial support we can provide
to a candidate. It's unlikely that we'll even be able to afford anything as basic as sending a postcard listing our endorsements to every registered Green in the state; even if we could somehow manage that, said voters would still only amount to a small percentage
of the total vote for our candidates. Along those lines, even spreading our endorsements via email and social media will still only reach a tiny percentage of even the registered Greens, let alone the vast mass of Democrats, No Party Preference voters, and
others who might be inclined to vote for our candidates.<u></u><u></u></p><div><div class="h5">

<p class="MsoNormal">Again, if we have candidates running for multiple statewide offices, any one of them could serve to get us over the 2% threshold. Historically, up and down the ballot, we've often run well above that, and it seems to me that we'd have an
argument for having exceeded the threshold even if we had two candidates running on our party line, each of whom only gained about 1% of the vote, for any such office...<u></u><u></u></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If all that happens is that the endorsement process mirrors internal divisions otherwise present in our party, what exactly does it accomplish? Do we really want to effectively delegitimize particular candidates seeking to run for office
within our party, and use the "spoiler" argument against our own candidates?!? When we had primaries, decisions about who should run were left up to registered Greens voting in our primary, except in extreme cases. Then we coalesced (generally) around whoever
the voters picked, and moved on. It seems to me that the more folks running, and the broader the representation and point of view they provide, the BETTER OFF the party is, as that will draw MORE voters to us, and in turn, for races where we have less or only
one candidate, lead to more votes for those folks.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It might be argued that having a single candidate makes it easier to talk to the press about "our party's candidate", but isn't it a signal of strength that we could have multiple candidates running statewide campaigns? The Democrats aren't
concerned about splitting their votes, why should we be? I just don't see what purpose this process serves; folks supporting an unendorsed candidate aren't going to quit doing so based on how the SGA votes, and all it is going to do is provoke a meta discussion
about the process at the local level, and lead to rumors about power plays and backroom deals, etc.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p>I agree that this process should have been started at least six months ago. At this point, candidates and their teams have already done the work to get on the ballot and it is likely there will be more than one Green candidate for the offices of SOS & Governor.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>If we're not in it to win it, what is the point? There is a point, actually. We will benefit from having any of the statewide candidates reaching 2%, thus securing ballot access. In addition, Green Party benefits by campaigning our platform, Key Values and
the type of electoral reforms which are necessary to empower alternate parties. I do not feel it is useful to delude ourselves into thinking that we are in fact "in it to win it," because until these reforms are accomplished, we are severely disadvantaged
in realistically competing to win. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>I also do not feel it is useful to put so much weight on pandering to so-called "berniecrats," as it dilutes our values in specific ways which compromises what the party actually stands for. Of course such pandering has its merit in reaching registration
goals, but for a race like this, we should be careful in pretending we share more in common with that core than we really do.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>There has to be a party which stands firmly against war, firmly supports environmental protections, among other issues and Sanders does not reflect these values in his actions. There are already "progressive" democrats who will woo voters with compromised
ideals and so rather than GP moving to the right, we stand firm, campaign and demonstrate our values to a growing population of individuals who agree, and keep our stances so that we may secure a place for them when they realize the duopoly does not serve
their interests and that these voters no longer wish to compromise their values.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>I will vote against the SGA proposal to endorse candidates at this point because it was brought in too late, serves little purpose and is proposed without a strategy which delegates could examine and decide upon.

Don't they have until March 9 to raise funds for the ballot? If<br>
that's the case, we should know by the time the SGA votes who is in<br>
and who is out. I agree that we should not make an endorsement before<br>
then, because we haven't had any process for informing Greens about<br>
all the Green candidates running.<br>
