THIRD PARTY BACK ON BALLOT

THIRD PARTY BACK ON BALLOT

Stewart A. Alexander
2006 Candidate
California Lieutenant Governor
Peace and Freedom Party

Three days after being kicked off the California ballot the Peace and Freedom Party regained their ballot status after Secretary of State Bruce McPherson reversed his decision.
McPherson changed course after he was presented with more than 70 years of legal precedent and realized his argument for taking the party off the ballot would have been hopeless in a court of law.
Much of the victory that the Peace and Freedom Party enjoys resulted from the reliable information that was obtained from Richard Winger, Editor of Ballot Access News, based in San Francisco.
Stewart A. Alexander, a candidate for California Lieutenant Governor, says, “McPherson was completely aware of our legal position but was willing to step on our legal rights to pursue Schwarzenegger’s agenda. The Secretary of State was appointed by Schwarzenegger and works for the governor and not the people”.
Kevin Akin, State Chair for the Peace and Freedom Party said, “This was only an attempt to keep third party candidates off the ballot and to silence working people”. Kevin Akin was quick to spread the news of McPherson’s decision.
Stewart Alexander believes this is an ongoing attempt by Schwarzenegger and his group to silence working people. Alexander says “This is what the November special election was all about, to silence the nurses, the teachers, public workers, peace officers, firefighters, unions and the working class. This is what Schwarzenegger defines as special interest. For now we have won this battle but Californians need to realize that Schwarzenegger and his bunch have declared war on all working people”.
