Over at GreenPartyWatch, Brent McMillan has compiled an officeholder summary for the party in 2011 and an election wrap up by the numbers. While this might be a little late, I have not seen such a comprehensive list anywhere else.
104 green party candidates ran for election in 2011. By comparison 150 green party candidates ran for election in 2007, 277 green party candidates ran for election in 2003 and 96 green party candidates ran for election in 1999 (the year prior to the presidential election).
More than half of the offices that greens ran for in 2011 were partisan, by my count, 54.
22 greens were elected to office in 2011, 21% of those who ran.
Eleven of the 22, half, were incumbents seeking re-election. Two of these were partisan:
In the spring, Jason West made a come back and was elected to Mayor of New Paltz, NY.
In the fall election, Leif Smith was re-elected to Constable in Redding, CT.
Of note, there was a successful write-in campaign in Virginia. Ira Richards was elected to Lord Fairfax District Soil and Water Conservation Board. He was one of 2 candidates that ran for two seats receiving 135 votes or 3%. (There may have been another successful write-in campaign in VA but have not been able to confirm.)
