Text of Proposal:

Whereas our Green Convention is rapidly approaching, and in order to fulfill the bylaws and spirit of the Nevada Green party --specifically the wording regarding our duty to help elect Greens to office -- I propose that we of the EC use what time we have available to attempt to create a candidate handbook for Nevada Greens - to the best of our ability in this short time. And that this handbook be available to those at the convention who may be interested in running for office in Nevada this election cycle.

And also that any readers of the EC online meeting be encouraged to participate in this project by offering their ideas and opinions on how best to accomplish this task.

And further, since the deadline between our convention and the last day to file (individual) petitions will be very short (slightly over a week), that we have available for any who wish to run, a copy of the Minor Political Party Candidate Petition form (state of Nevada), for their use, and also that we make an attempt to get a network of dedicated signers, and petition people ready beforehand so that we CAN get candidates on the ballot on 2006.

I propose that we ready ourselves to make a triage effort to pre-secure sufficient signators so that those wishing to run will have the required 250+ signatures, and be within the alloted timeframe.
