*States in Which One Can Register Green - and Be Counted: From Richard Winger, Ballot Access News: "States in Which One Can Register Green - and Be Counted : From Richard Winger, Ballot Access News: "States in which people can register Green on either the state, county or legislative district level and the government keeps a tally are: AK, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, FL, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, NE, NJ, NV, NM, NY, OR, PA, UT and WV. If the Greens were on the ballot in IA and RI, their registrations would be counted. States in which people can register Green but the government presently won't tally are: KS, NH, NC, OK, SD, WY. However, it is possible that with some effort, including legal and legislative changes, the situation in these latter states will change."
