***2003 CALL FOR GREEN PARTY CANDIDATES***

The Green Party of the United States is looking for progressives to run for
elected office. 177 Green office holders in 24 states are hard at work. They
are creating public policy on important issues including civil rights, a living
wage, affordable housing, alternative voting systems, and peace. They are
advocating for peace and opposing urban sprawl and expansion of corporate
power. Green office holders ran to make an immediate impact on their
communities as town council members, county commissioners, school board members
etc. These Greens reached out to voters of diverse backgrounds, brought
together coalitions of community organizations and individuals to begin to
reclaim their local governments.

The growth and movement of the Green Party continues in 2003 and toward
2004. All across the country hundreds of Green Party candidates will be
challenging the two establishment parties.

2003 is a great time for candidates to learn the art of running for office,
and a smart, energetic candidate can win. You can run too. Please consider
becoming a candidate for elective office this year. We especially encourage
people who are under-represented in elective office to consider running; women,
African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans, gays and
lesbians, people with disabilities, young people and other minorities. If you
or someone you know is considering running, please contact
the Green Party of Colorado www.greens.org/colorado,
the Green Party of the United States, www.gp.org/,
or us at the Poudre Valley Green Party.

We are also looking for people to work with these candidates:
campaign coordinators, managers and other campaign volunteers.

The Green Party is a grassroots activist party working for social change
based on our Ten Key Values. To learn more please visit http://www.gp.org
