The Matthew Hoh for Senate campaign is under all-outattack, and we need your help now.
The Democratic Partyestablishment has launched a massive and deceptive voter intimidationcampaign attemptin
g to bully North Carolina voters intoremoving their names from our NC Green Party ballot accesspetition. We’ve been hearing from folksacross the state that they’re being bombarded with phone calls, textmessages, and even people coming to their houses demanding to removetheir signature from our petition.
This is an outrageous assault on democracy, and after wespent almost all our funds on a massive grassroots campaign to collectover 22,500 signatures, we need your help now to be able to stand upand fight back.
Will you pitch in what you can now so we candefend our hard-earned place on the ballot?
As reported by the Raleigh News and Observer, after the Green Partysubmitted over 22,500 signatures, of which nearly 16,000 passed therigorous county verification process, the Elias Law Group, headed byformer general counsel for Hillary Clinton Marc Elias, demanded alldocumentation related to the petition drive from the State Board ofElections on behalf of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee(DSCC).
Shortly after that, the DSCC beganharassing petition signers with barrages of unsolicited phone calls,text messages, and even operatives showing up to their doors afterthey said they weren’t interested.
As reported by WNCN CBS 17, we have recorded evidence ofthese callers falsely representing themselves as calling on behalf ofthe Green Party, while making misleading to outright falseclaims to pressure people to remove their names from a petition thatthey already signed and we already submitted.
Our campaign team has seen a lot ofdirty tricks from the establishment parties over the years, butnone of us has ever seen such a massive, deceitful, andshameless campaign of voter intimidation to try to sabotage asuccessful grassroots petition drive.
A few media outlets have picked upon this story, but we need much more coverage because every singlevoter has the right to know how the Democratic Party establishment isattacking democracy.
Please read our full statement on the Democrats’ voterintimidation campaign, contact your local media outlets askingthem to cover this story, and write letters to the editor to make yourvoice heard. Don’t let the establishment silence ourvoices!
This massive, dirty, and obviouslywell-funded voter intimidation scheme to undo the success of ourgrassroots petition drive shows how far the Democratic Party will goto prevent someone who actually represents working people from beingon the ballot.
The establishment is terrified thatGreen Party organizers were able to succeed in clearing their ballotaccess hurdles, because they know that the people are hungry for apolitical movement that will deliver healthcare, housing, livingwages, and a sustainable economy for all.
If you are targeted by the Democratic Party’s voterintimidation campaign, please contact the campaign about yourexperience.
This blatant attack on democracyhighlights the corporate Democratic Party’s utter hypocrisy, whetherthey’re claiming to fight for democracy, stand for working people,care about climate crisis, or any other of countless issues wheretheir actions fly in the face of their rhetoric.
The hardest thing we’ve ever seen the Democrats fight foris to keep a disabled Marine combat veteran off the ballot.
But the Democratic establishment’sheavy-handed attack on our grassroots campaign will only inspire moreand more people across North Carolina to stand with us as the onlycampaign fighting for working people, the planet, peace, and realdemocracy.
Please contribute what you can today to helpus stand up and fight back to defend our hard-won ballot signatures -and democracy itself.
Thank you for all you do to supportMatthew Hoh and the growing movement for people, planet, and peaceover profit!
Peace,
The Matthew Hoh for Senateteam
Plenty Complaining
Online, especially blue checks with millions of people following, but all just complain and no one doing things that will get people to act. And yes, I complain about the old dems too (how fragile are these Stockholm syndrome from Reagan's time idiots?[1]) but seriously can these popular talking heads do more than just whine? And yeah the gerontocracy is essentially killing us (see the SCOTUS' deletion of the EPA) and the dems, well, can they do more than send out fundraising emails? But others can do more, like start a callathon on Senators etc.[2]
That being said, for all the working of the refs the right does, the above panel just shows how much the techies really love them the right (way more than the left, that's for sure), whatever their stance on flying their employees out for abortions may be.
The right's only argument is that they aren't far right enough.
I mean, I remember writing Labyrinth of Souls and how it unfurled in my mind. At the time I thought some of it over the top, even as a warning, but much worse has come to pass (even if much was spot on). It's been cold comfort, being right. But now it does leave us with the question of what next?
[1] This is what our dem gerontocracy is wasting money on:
[2] that I've been banned from liberal blogs for saying as much, shows the scream machine online is just some social signaling more than anything. This doesn't mean that what they signal about isn't valid, because there are lots of grassroots movements behind those, but you should know what they represent.
