Fine by me though I cant quite see parallel between NH and Montana. I
suspect as well that you have been GPUS long enough to know that most states
have predominantly local concerns--even MA, espec outside the Boston metro
area. Fondly Betts Zisk

Voting	03/26/2007 - 04/01/2007

Background
The Montana Green Party originally submitted its application
for affiliation with the Green Party of the United States back in May of
2004. After MTGP provided some answers regarding its requirements for
membership and decision-making processes, and amended its bylaws to address
various concerns, the Accreditation Committee agreed that the Montana Green
Party has met the requirements for affiliation with GPUS, as laid out in
Article 2 of the Rules & Procedures of the Green Party of the United States,
and will contribute mightily to the success of the Green Party of the United
States.
Proposal
Based on the recommendation of the GPUS Accreditation Committee,
the Montana Green Party shall become an accredited state Green Party and
join as a member state party of the Green Party of the United States.

>Recently someone mentioned 51 state ballot lines as a good goal for 2008.
>I'm not sure that's realistic in 2008, however, its definitely not
>realistic if we aren't able to even organize a state party presence in all
>50 states first.
>
>My understanding is that the following states still are not affiliated:
>* Kentucky - Was effort at one time to affiliate
>* Montana - Affiliation vote in progress
>* New Hampshire - Was effort at one time to affiliate
>* North Dakota - ?
>* South Dakota - ?
>* West Virginia - In process of affiliating
>
>In addition, the following territories are not yet affiliated:
>* American Samoa
>* Guam
>* Puerto Rico
>* U.S. Virgin Islands
>
>Finally, from my understanding, the following states are currently
>inactive.  (Is the AC working on a proposal for the GNC to actually declare
>these states inactive?)
>* Alaska
>* Wyoming
>
>I realize the above is a bit off-topic in relation to the Montana proposal,
>but this would be good information for the GNC to have in discussing our
>priorities for 2007/8

>Thanks again to the AC, and best wishes to the Montana Green Party.
