Helping Jill Stein get on State Ballots - Many Deadlines in July and August

Submitted by paradigmshift on Wed, 07/13/2016 - 2:59pm

Crunch time is coming to get the Green Party on the ballot in many states. The Greens/Jill Stein are currently on the ballot in 23 states. Petitioning takes time and effort (money helps too). Deadlines are coming up in the following states (with links to state/regional coordinator contact info):

First, the main webpage for ballot access is here.

For those of you that want to help with ballot access from home or long-distance you can phonebank or donate to pay petitioners.

Missouri - July 25 Contact info - MO coordinators
Iowa - July 30 Contact info - IA coordinators
Kansas - August 1 Contact info - KS coordinators
Nebraska - August 1. They have no state coordinator, but this is a priority state. Contact info for NE
New Jersey - August 1 Contact info - NJ coordinators
Pennsylvania - August 1 Contact info - PA coordinators
Vermont - August 1 Contact info - VT coordinators
Alaska - August 10. They have no state coordinator.Contact info for AK
Connecticut - August 10 Contact info - CT coordinators
New Hampshire - August 10 Contact info - NH coordinators
Nevada - ?extended deadline? Contact info - NV coordinators
Utah - August 10 15 Contact info - UT coordinators
Montana - August 15 17 Contact info - MT coordinators

Multiple other state deadlines are in late August and September.

Previously, the Greens were focusing on one state (IL/GA), now, the Greens' efforts will be divided among multiple states at the same time. So they need more help. The more help, the more states Jill Stein will be on the ballot. It is vital that many more than the required number of signatures are obtained because some will be thrown out. Here is a few more links:

For Missouri, there is a Missouri Green Party website.

For Kansas, there is a: Kansas Green Party Facebook group.

For Nebraska, there is a: Nebraska for Jill Stein Facebook page.

For Pennsylvania, there is a Green Party of Pennsylvania Ballot Access Facebook group.

For Connecticut, there is a Green Party of Connecticut webpage.

For Nevada, there is a Nevada Green Party Ballot Access Forum.

Utah has until August 15

according to Jill's web site.

Is there any way to find out how many signatures they already have in a state?
Hubby doesn't want to vote for her, but we'll both go and sign the petition.

Here's what I could find out.

I poked around at the different Utah Facebook pages and saw nothing about number of signatures obtained. They need 2,000 signatures. I did find this on one of the facebook pages:

"There are now a variety of local businesses you can go to sign the "Get Jill on the Ballot" petition here in Utah. So when you have the time, please stop in and sign the petition... and support your local business! We have petitions in place at the following locations:

That's all I saw too.

Ah well. 2000 isn't that many at least.

Virginia is trickier than it looks

It's not enough just to get 5000 signatures - there must be at least 200 from EACH of the 10 Congressional districts. And some of them are going to be damned hard to get - like the 5th or the 10th.
