I thought the state had random lottery assignments for the ballot. That's what I was told about state rep and state senate races anyways. The city and the state should adopt that policy. It would avoid a lot of these shenanigans.

Posted by Tom on Wed., Mar 29, 2006 at 11:31 AMThe SOS lottery for position on the ballot applies only to opening day filings.
Could someone explain to me what interest the Green Party has in the Revenue Collector and Recorder offices? Do the Greens have a beef (sorry, do not know the equivalent vegan expression) with Daly and Carpenter regarding their paper and toner cartridge recycling?
Posted by Howard on Wed., Mar 29, 2006 at 1:21 PMCriminal justice and business regulation do seem like more important policies to Greens than records and bills, or even "paper and toner cartridge recycling."
But if you're thinking the Greens filed against the wrong two "county" offices, maybe the Protege and Matriarch better embody our City's Party establishment than The Belt or Future Mayor.
Posted by Brian on Wed., Mar 29, 2006 at 3:20 PMI have no idea what you intended to convey in that last sentence.
The Protege, Matriarch, and The Belt are not members of the City Central Democratic Committee. I do not know who is the Future Mayor.
