Background

Note: The discussion period for this election began 2/19/18 but for technical reasons that proposal had to be cancelled and replaced. The replacement, however, did not include all the candidates entered. So the proposal is again cancelled and replaced. Discussion and voting are ending on Sunday as usual.

Background: The Coordinated Campaign Committee (CCC) is a standing committee of the GPUS that cooperates with state and local chapters in the support of federal, state, and local Green Party electoral campaigns through a variety of different programs and support functions.

The Coordinated Campaign Committee is composed of 10 voting members drawn from affiliated state parties. CCC members are selected annually by the members of the National Committee, and may be members of that committee or of an affiliated state party; no state shall have in excess of one member on the CCC. Vacancies on the CCC are filled by the Steering Committee. The members of the CCC annually elect up to three co-chairs from among its members.

The CCC web page is available at http://gpus.org/committees/coordinated-campaign/

There are 7 positions open at this time: seats for 4 women and 3 men. Candidates must be nominated in writing by their state parties and accept their nomination by the end of the nomination period. No write-ins are allowed.
