HOUSTON – The Green Party of the United States nominating convention held July 11th finalized our Presidential & Vice-Presidential nominees. Congratulations to Howie Hawkins & Angela Walker who won broad approval throughout the party. Follow them on Twitter @HowieHawkins & @AngelaNWalker. GPTX supports our nominees!
Great news! Hawkins/Walker 2020 has already qualified for federal matching funds. So donations through most of August can be DOUBLED, letting the campaign put more into ballot access efforts!
Please understand, the Pres/VP campaign is the coordinating center of ballot access efforts to secure & retain Green ballot lines in states across the nation. Please take advantage of this time to make your donation count double for Green ballot access!!
