Analysis of 2014 Election Results
Results of the statewide election of November 4, 2014
This table is ordered by decreasing GRP vote percentage (obtained by simply averaging the vote percentages of the three candidates). "Tot Votes" is the number of votes cast for all candidates (using the Treasurer's race as the benchmark). "KM Pipeline" is 1 if the community is on the route of the Kinder-Morgan pipeline. "Campaign Activity" is an index from 0 to 2 that roughly indicates the amount of GRP campaign activity that occurred in a community.

GRP Celebrates Winning Ballot Status
November 5, 2014
Cheers erupted as the results of yesterday's elections came in to the Green-Rainbow Party election night gathering at the Middle East Restaurant in Cambridge. The tally showed that the Green-Rainbow Party had succeeded in gaining official recognition as a major political party in Massachusetts. Each of its three candidates for statewide office polled above the 3% threshold needed to win official recognition.
Reported election results show that the GRP candidates for Secretary, Treasurer, and Auditor polled 3.6%, 4.1%, and 4.0% respectively. The 82,138 votes recorded by Ian Jackson, the GRP Treasurer candidate, was the high count for any independent candidate in Massachusetts, and all three GRP candidates tallied more votes than any of the three independent candidates for governor.
Ian, Danny, and Merelice celebrate the returns at the Middle East Restaurant on election night
According to party co-chair John Andrews "Winning ballot status ends the repressive fundraising restrictions that were forbidding our party and all its chapters from spending more than $500 statewide in aggregate to support any one candidate. That was an average of only $1.42 per candidate per town. We've had to compete against Democrats and Republicans who have been given permission for unlimited spending. The outrageously tilted playing field is now slightly more level and GRP candidates are going to be increasingly competitive."
The votes also awarded ballot status for the GRP in the upcoming 2016 presidential races. The party will hold a presidential primary in the spring of 2016 and its presidential nominee will be on the November ballot.
The Green-Rainbow candidates were interviewed on a national livestream broadcast set up to report on Green Party races around the nation. Results indicated that voters were increasingly disenchanted with the two dominant parties, and that Green candidates were benefiting from this.
"We've had recent successes in winning seats on town select boards. And our mayoral candidate in Fall River, a major city, won 32% of the vote. Now that we have ballot access, we're looking ahead to recruiting more candidates to run for local and legislative seats" said Andrews.
"I'm proud of the the Green-Rainbow Party for being the voice of conscience on so many issues that were being ignored by the big party candidates" said Danny Factor, GRP candidate for Secretary of State. "We were the only party that advocated a determined effort to address the problems of poverty and income inequality in Massachusetts. We were the only party that advocated a serious effort to address the looming catastrophe of global warming. We were the only party that stood for universal single-payer health care. We have an important role to play in speaking up for the 99% when other parties are focused on doing more favors for the elite 1%."
"Voters are hungry for a different kind of politics" added M K Merelice, candidate for State Auditor. "They want to see elected officials who can show true compassion and concern for their constituents. They are tired of politicians who simply do favors for their big campaign donors. The difference we represent is evident in our Community Uplift Initiative that would empower struggling communities to undertake local action to create good jobs and abolish poverty."
"The Green-Rainbow Party is a key voice for badly needed policy changes that are being ignored by establishment politicians" according to Ian Jackson, candidate for State Treasurer. "We have an important role to play in focusing attention on the need for single-payer health care, a public bank of the Commonwealth, a plan to end fossil fuel dependence, ending the student debt crisis, and addressing the failed economic policies that have created poverty and unemployment in our communities. We have some important work ahead of us."

You can cast a courageous vote!
Dear Friend,
It's decision time. On Tuesday you will walk into the voting booth and will cast a vote that will leave a highly visible public record of the direction in which you think our Commonwealth should go. I'm sure you want to vote courageously and make sure your vote sends the right message.
I don't have to tell you that the political class that now holds power is failing us badly on many accounts. They have created an economy in which 95% of the economic gain has been going to the wealthiest 1% of Americans. Today 30% of the children in Massachusetts live in poverty or near-poverty. And rather than address the economic pain, they are saying that more favors need to be done for the super-affluent. It is no coincidence that the people they want to enrich are those who fund political campaigns and buy television ads.
Establishment politicians have ignored the call to address the developing catastrophe of global warming. They have instead dedicated themselves to an "all of the above" energy policy that puts fracking for fossil fuels as the top priority. Their idea of energy progress is to spend $4 billion dollars on a new gas pipeline to bring highly polluting fracked gas into New England.
They are refusing to acknowledge the unaffordable mess that is being created by forcing people to buy health insurance from for-profit companies while allowing big pharmaceutical companies to avoid price constraints.
And they are striking a cruel blow against democracy by allowing wealthy individuals to pour billions of dollars into the buying of elections. They refuse to even mention the Clean Elections solution that could give us back our democracy.
On November 4, they want you to vote to endorse all these policies. If you do, then they will breathe a sigh of relief. They will think that despite all your protests, you aren't really serious about changing business-as-usual.
Why don't we send them a message that they can't ignore?
There are three candidates on the statewide ballot who stand for serious, effective action to address the key crises of our time. They are Danny Factor (for Secretary of State), Ian Jackson (for State Treasurer) and M K Merelice (for State Auditor). They are running as members of the Green-Rainbow Party.
Here is what they stand for:
• Replacing corporate welfare schemes like Governor Patrick's needless "Billion for Biotech" with locally-directed programs to eliminate unemployment and poverty in economically struggling cities.
• Scaling back the burning of fracked gas and stoping expansion of gas pipelines. They would instead invest in an expedited transition to clean, renewable energy.
• Fair taxes and green jobs, not gambling casinos that drain money from our Commonwealth.
• Implementing a universal single-payer health care system that provides adequate health care to every resident of Massachusetts while saving billions of dollars in health care costs. (Most of the developed world has successfully adopted this approach.)
• Rescuing our democracy from the domination of big money by implementing a Clean Elections Law and promoting inclusive debates - not deceptive television commercials - as the best way to inform voters. (As a sign of their commitment, the Green-Rainbow candidates are running now as clean money candidates by refusing to accept lobbyist money or donations from for-profit CEO's who employ lobbyists.)
Your vote for Danny, Ian, or Merelice sends a clear message that you want to see the needs of people and the planet guide pubic policy. The more votes they get, the more it will encourage other candidates to take courageous stands for the public good. If we expect courage from candidates, we must show similar courage in voting our values.
Your vote on Tuesday can be a vote for a new dawn of economic justice and enviromental justice in Massachusetts. Regardless of how you vote in other races, please join me in voting for the Green-Rainbow alternative for Secretary of State, State Treasurer, and State Auditor.
Thank You!
John Andrews, Co-chair, Green-Rainbow Party
