[statecom-discuss] nh mo connection

[jamie mclaughlin]

The connection is that new hampshire and montana ( currently)

do not have state green parties,

we are voting on establishing a state green party in Montana,

I mention New Hampshire because I think it would be nice to establish a 
state green party there,

we might have some influence over this happening because we boarder New 
Hampshire and that is relatively   local in our New England cosmos

i hope that makes sense, Do you know anyone up there?

peace,
jamm

>Background
>The Montana Green Party originally submitted its application
>for affiliation with the Green Party of the United States back in May of

>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.
