Cindy Sheehan Reiterates Endorsements of Howie Hawkins and Malachy
McCourt

A mailer from the Working Families Party that arrived in many voters
mailboxes on Friday and Saturday depicts Cindy Sheehan, along with Pete
Seeger and Michael Moore, urging voters to voters to support bringing
the
troops home by voting for Democrats running on the Working Families
Party
line.

Last month, Cindy Sheehan had endorsed the Green Party candidates Howie
Hawkins for US Senator and Malachy McCourt for Governor.

The Working Families Party endorsed all the Democrats running for
statewide
office. These Democratic candidates also appear on the Working Families
Party line on Row E. The Green Partys candidates appear on the next
line,
Row F.

Early Saturday evening Cindy Sheehan issued the following
clarification of
her position:

"I support a lot of the work of the Working Families Party and
especially
Mr. Pete Seeger who has been an amazing warrior for peace. However, I
cannot
support the candidacy of Hillary Clinton who is ensconced in the
all-Democratic slate. She is not pro-peace, or even anti-war and has
been a
rubber stamp for George Bush's war of terror. Many of the candidates
that
the WFP supports are worthy of support, but certainly not Senator
Clinton.

"I support Howie Hawkins in his campaign against Hillary Clinton and I
support Malachy McCourt in his campaign for governor.

"Peace, Cindy Sheehan.
