Hawkins’ campaign is currently organizing in Arizona, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, South Dakota, and Vermont.

On Hawkins’ website, the campaign is calling for volunteers to petition and organize in one of their nine focus states or in a neighboring state, call supporters, sign up to petition in another state once permitted.

  1. Tim McKee-

    Getting a Presidential candidate for the Greens should be a UNIFIED national party effort not a divided candidate centered effort. Open and fair elections mean working as a team no matter the primary winner.

    Giving one candidate MONEY for ballot access instead of the whole party for constructive drive is a terrible idea.

    Hawkins agrees and members of his campaign team are working with both the Green Party Ballot Access Committee and with state parties seeking ballot access.

    Spin,spin, spin. Give candidate x money not the party?
    Posts by his leadership say ballot access should ” candidate centered” and always has been! (Blankenship)

    Where is the national plan? Past co chair says no national plan. Current co chairs have a plan?

    Give one candidate for ballot drives. Nope.

  5. tim Mckee

    The National Party is putting forth a nationsl plan for ballot access, so please give to tbe party as a whole for ballot access
