Your contributions to our efforts will enable us to obtain ballot access for Green candidates in Georgia for the November 2000 General Election.  If you are ready to get a petition and connect with others in your community with whom you can work collecting the signatures we need, please contact the County Coordinators listed below.  Is your County missing from this list?  Are you willing to take some leadership in our ballot access efforts?  If so, let me know.  We need your help.

Please excuse our dust.  This is a page under construction.  A preliminary survey indicates we will likely start with County Coordinators in 32 of Georgia's 159 Counties, based on our existing network of supporters.  While we compile this list, please feel free to contact our Canvas Director directly by email or by calling 877/ 473-3609.  He'll be happy to connect you with the materials you need.

What we ask of County Coordinators

The job is simple.  But the contribution you make by taking it on is invaluable and necessary to our success.  Please consider joining our list of County Coordinators and making your contribution to our efforts to permit Greens to vote in November for our Candidates of Choice.  Here is what we ask: 
  • Permit us to publish your name, address, email and phone number. 
  • Obtain and preserve an original of the petition, the How-to flyer, our membership form, the volunteer referral form, the "right to petition" flyer and other appropriate materials. 
  • Duplicate these materials in sufficient quantities to provide them to petition volunteers. 
  • Respond when petition volunteers contact you to get involved. 
  • Ask each volunteer to complete a volunteer referral form and fax or mail it to the Party. 
    • If you are ambitious and ready to go beyond the minimum expectations, here is what else you can do in the role of a County Coordinator to advance our Ballot Access Petition Drive: 
  • Track the volunteers in your County. 
  • Stay in touch by phone or otherwise to encourage volunteers in their involvement in the petition drive effort. 
  • Coach petition volunteers in surmounting barriers they encounter in the work. 
  • Coach petition volunteers in setting and obtaining their personal signature goals. 
  • Convene ocassional or regular petition drive meetings to train and support the circulators in your community. 
  • Invite our Candidates, Party officers or our petition drive Canvas Director to visit one of these meetings to share with your local volunteers news of Party building in Georgia and nationally and to support your local work. 
    • I look forward to hearing from you, soon.
