The Convention

[CTPINES]

how many districts left?

The 1st and 2nd are left.

Schiff's volunteers need to devote ALL OF THEIR FREE TIME to the campaign.

Eh, it's the establishment. Schiff can do better among the people.

ugh.... Peter deserves so much better, what a lame bunch of votes... WWF Linda? really??

Does this convention determine who is on the ballot for the primary?

yes, schiff needs 15%

 

[LeifEiriksson]

Well, without Peter it looks like it's going to be hyperinflation then. Better start stocking up on gold and guns now.

 

[JohnG]

I think she's been helped by the latest poll showing her trailing blumenthal by only three points (or something like that).

The winner at this convention gets the 1st line for the primary. Anyone who gets 15% on any ballot qualifies for the primary.

 

[daSHiZZLE]

I donno about hyperinflation but definitely high inflation. Peter himself has only said hyperinflation is a worse case scenario.

Thanks for clarifying that.

 

[JohnG]

but you can petition yourself into the primary as well?

Something tells me no because they are using this convention to limit the number of people on the ballot.

His best bet is to run as an independent or a Libertarian.

 

[Jim McClarin]

Does Peter need 15% to get on the ballot for free and otherwise he needs to petition? What if he get 5%, could he still petition his way onto the ballot?

 

[Epic]

but you can petition yourself into the primary as well?

Yes, however if Simmons drops out I dunno.

 

[Michael P]

86 out of 1073...... 8% moving to 2nd district

 

[No1ButPaul08]

yes you can petition your way on to the ballot

 

[CTPINES]

Yes, I forgot what % of Republicans are needed to petition your way into the primary.

 

[libertythor]

Good.

 

[JohnG]

Wait... if simmons drops out... his delegates will have to change their votes? Some could go to schiff then.
