Subject: [nolphiladelphia] Come to the 1st PA Green Party Convention January 13 in Harrisburg

 

The Green Party of Pennsylvania is pleased to announce its 2002 Nominating Convention. The Convention will be held at the Wildwood Conference Center at Harrisburg Community College on January 13th.

The Green Party of Pennsylvania is the fastest growing political party in the state. After unexpectedly electing 14 candidates to office in PA last November and scoring better than expected in high profile races, the party has emerged as a vital new force in Pennsylvania politics. The Green Party candidate for Governor will doubtlessly alter the dynamics and dialogue of the statewide contest.

In addition to nominating a Gubernatorial candidate,  Lt Governor, Congressional and State level  candidates will also be considered and voted upon.

The keynote speaker will be Elizabeth Horton Sheff, who currently serves as the President of City Council of Hartford, CT. Ms Horton Sheff, an African American council member serving her second term as a Green, was recently promoted to promoted to president of that body.

Additionally, Pat Humphries, a well-known recording artist, will provide a cultural context.
