The
Green Party national convention was held in Milwaukee from June 23rd to the 27th. There was a great amount of discussion and political negotiation between those who supported
David Cobb and those who wanted to endorse
Ralph Nader and
Peter Camejo. Cobb got the nomination in the second round of voting with California and New York leaning towards Nader. From my experience as a delegate from New York I found that there was a respect for the nomination, while at the same time
party members were willing to work to get Nader on the ballot in the state and elsewhere. The following month, from July 6th to August 17th, is a time for getting signatures to get on the ballot for New York and will be a very busy time.
