[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

I'll run for Chair. It should be neat to have it be competitive, no?

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

I nominate both OneJ and Peebs for Vice Chair. Either one or both of you could accept. Just wanna get this process moving lol

[1] OneJ_ of Mississippi

I don't think we have time to do an endorsement vote for the Southern Senate election this weekend...

Pretty sure I get automatically endorsed since I'm already a Peace Party member, no?

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Let's allow 72 hours for requests/speeches, and then we'll proceed to a vote.

Is this limit up?

Yes, unless you had something to say.

Do we vote on all the House candidates/Lincoln Assembly/etc. or just the people who asked for our endorsement?

Given the low number of asks, I move to vote on all candidates

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

I also support Siren's suggestion.

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Ok, I think that's a majority of the party who don't want to endorse others for the House. Also, I'm declining to vote on the presidential endorsement.

Does anyone think we should endorse for Senate, since none of our party's members are running? Or we could just treat it like the House.

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Great planks, Scott! I think a plank about civil rights (for trans people, immigrants, etc.) would also be useful. I ought to expand on this, but Father's Day is taking up most of my time today. Just thought I'd mention it so it would be on people's minds.

OOPS lol. I thought it was the same as the American one up to, like, the 27th amendment. Guess I should do more research. Regardless, I think people are aware of the intentions of my votes

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

We should choose the date and location for our next convention. I think it should be earlier than this month's, since it feels kind of awkward heading into the election weekend before adjourning the actual convention. Apparently, the next one is required to be in Frémont, so I move to nominate some locations!

I nominate San Francisco, California to host the next Peace Party National Convention.

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

1. San Francisco
2. Denver
3. Virginia City

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Yes.
