Background

The 2008 Presidential Nominating Convention floor rules stipulate that the Steering Committee nominate for GNC approval various convention officials. While the current PNC floor rules proposal has failed, BRPP has put forth an alternate proposal which they feel should pass. Whether it passes or not, the convention officials will still be needed. Therefore, the Steering Committee is submitting for GNC approval nominations for Elections administrator, Honorary Co-chairs and Facilitators. Due to the nearness of the nominating convention, these votes are being posted with an expedited timeline. Candidate bios and more information shall, when available, be posted to the "natlcomvotes" email list.

From #361, Approval of PNC Rules, Amended:
Section 5-2 Honorary Co-Chairs

5-2.1 Gender-balanced, Honorary Co-Chairs shall be nominated by the
Steering Committee of the Green Party of the United States, and
submitted for confirmation by the Green National Committee at least 60
days prior to the Convention. If the Honorary Co-Chairs nominated by
the Steering Committee are not approved, then the Steering Committee
shall continue to submit nominations to the Green National Committee
until they are approved.

5-2.2 Any person nominated as an Honorary Co-Chair must not be employed
by, serve in any official capacity in the campaign of, nor officially
endorse any of the Presidential candidates whose names are placed
before Convention.

5-2.3 Any person nominated as an Honorary Co-Chair should be one who
represents Green Party ideals, goals and practices; and who may be a
Green elected or appointed official to public office; or who may be a
spokesperson within their state or local Green Parties; and who may
have made significant achievements in the advancement of Green
politics; or who may represent an important constituency in the Green
movement; or whose presence otherwise positively and significantly
recommends the Green Party.

5-2.4 During the Convention, the Honorary Co-Chairs shall be
responsible for opening the Convention and playing a 'Masters of
Ceremonies' role in the proceedings. Before the Convention, the
Honorary Co-Chairs shall serve as Media Spokespeople and participate in
the promotion of the Convention
