Yes, that is the year, but it is also the number of volunteers we need to collect signatures for candidates to be on this year's November ballot.
This year we have an all-volunteer effort to get our statewide candidates on the ballot. To be successful, we will need everyone's help!
There is a nomination paper available with instructions for printing with the statewide Libertarian Party candidate information already on it here:
http://www.lppa.org/documents/election/2010/2010_nomination_paper.pdf Additional district candidates can be added as appropriate. The papers must be legal size and double-sided. Orientation front-to-back does not matter.
Anyone who is a registered voter in Pennsylvania can sign our papers, regardless of affiliation. There must be a separate sheet for voters of different counties and different elections districts will have different candidates listed on the papers.
A great day to gather signatures is on Primary Election Day, Tuesday, May 18, 2010. It is easy to get signatures from people coming out of the polls (stay at least 10 feet away from the door). Everyone there will be a registered voter in that district, so you know what papers you need. We need everyone who possibly can to be out on that day to collect signatures, at least during the periods of the morning, lunchtime, and after-work rushes.
If 2,010 volunteers can each collect ten signatures that day, our statewide drive will be done. Thank you for your help and there will be a list with district candidate information available soon!
