Lily Benavides: NJ Third-Party Candidates Face Unfair Playing Field In 2025 Election, Campaigns Say
The Green Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Lily Benavides, has claimed that the playing field is lopsided for third-parties.
The party’s original candidate for governor, Stephen Zielinski, stepped down in August due to a health issue. Zielinski announced that he was passing the torch to his intended lieutenant governor running mate, Benavides.
In order to qualify for the ballot as a replacement, Benavides raced to gather 2,000 petition signatures in less than a month. Eventually, the effort was derailed when more than 400 signatures faced a legal challenge from the Morris County Democratic Committee.

Tammie Rochester: My Ironclad Promises
Tammie Rochester life's work has been helping disadvantaged, disabled, and working-class people with everyday problems when they are at their most vulnerable. She helps her clients navigate complex systems and access key resources and social services. Tammie has experience fighting for the rights of children and families through the court system.
Tammie will do the same for the residents of Congressional District 18 (TX-18) if elected. TX-18 deserves a representative who will vote their conscience in Washington and do what is right—not play political games to keep their seat at the cost of their constituents.
Born and raised in Houston, Tammie knows from a personal and professional stance of the hardship of the people of Texas. Houston has one of the highest crime rates and road fatalities rates in Texas and the nation. High school dropout rates in Texas are also alarming.

Ethan Hale: Meet the special election candidates running for a Houston City Council at-large seat
Ethan Hale is a student at Houston City College and an organizer with the effort to recall Houston Mayor John Whitmire from office.
"Why am I running? Well, I mean, the mayor is essentially a MAGA Republican. I feel like our council is complicit," Hale said. "I feel like everyone else in the race at this point, they just kind of — they're not really willing to say what needs to be said here."

Vote for Alex Noyle for Auditor of East Norriton, Montgomery County
As a candidate for auditor of East Norriton, Montgomery County, I believe East Norriton deserves better than a corrupt two party system. Two years ago, 1,092 voters put their trust in us to build towards that goal. We didn’t win then, but we built enough strength to make this year’s three-way race winnable with a plurality. We met hundreds of voters who were excited about the alternative that we are offering, and the path from 30% to victory is a path we know we can walk if we work together.
Our message is simple: the parties in power should not be their own watchdogs. Residents across the political spectrum agree with us that independent oversight of local taxes is common sense. You may not share all our policy views; for an Auditor, you don’t have to. What matters is accountability. Alex accepts no corporate, lobbyist, or super PAC money, and he has no ties to the powers that be. We are the only campaign in the township that can deliver an independent audit for East Norriton taxpayers.

Green Party mayoral candidate in Hamden calls for town manager, foundation fixes and housing co-ops
In 2021, Patricia C. Vener-Saavedra, then a member of the town's Charter Revision Commission, called for a change to the town's government structure that some saw as sorely needed.
Vener-Saavedra and other members felt Hamden could benefit from a town manager who could help execute the mayor's vision and take over the day-to-day duties that can quickly fill up a schedule. The role ultimately wasn't adopted out of fear that it would be too jarring to Hamdenites and weaken the mayor's authority.
Now, as a Green Party candidate for mayor, Vener-Saavedra will get another chance to re-imagine Hamden's leadership configuration – a change that she says is crucial to achieving her long list of priorities, some of which are unconventional.
