I say we endorse, or at least consider endorsing, Kevin Akin from the Peace & Freedom Party for State Treasurer. He has a seriously impressive history of supporting the same values. This is taken from his P&F page:"

Kevin Akin advocates forming a California State Bank to keep tax money out of the hands of the profiteers and serve the needs of the people; revising the tax code to lift the burden from workers and the poor and make those who benefit the most from this economy pay for social needs; and breaking up the disproportionate influence of the billionaires and their corporations on state financial decisions.

Kevin participated in founding the Peace and Freedom Party and helped get voters registered in the new party until it won ballot status in early 1968. Appointed to the Riverside County Central Committee of the party at the age of 17, he attended the first two California conventions of the party as a delegate. He spent two months in New York and Illinois as a Peace and Freedom Party organizer in the summer of 1968. During this period, he was in Chicago during the 1968 Democratic Convention, where he was beaten and arrested. Returning to Riverside, he started working in mobile home plants at 18, and quickly became involved in a campaign to organize the workers into the Carpenters Union. Still active against the Vietnam War, he helped organize the massive Riverside demonstration against the invasion of Cambodia in 1970."

No Green has qualified for the ballot for Treasurer. This item should be deleted from the voting software. Has it been? There has been no notice indicating this is the case.
