I attended the 1st Allegany Green Party Nominating Convention. I have never attended a nominating convention. It was a learning experience for me. I came away invigorated for the work that needs to be done right here at home in Allegany County!
We nominated Michael Leptic as our candidate for Allegany County Commissioner. We endorsed Wayne Hedrick as candidate for Cumberland City Council. The candidates spoke. Candidates for state level offices spoke along with representatives of the Green party from the state level.
Do you wonder what Green Party values? I am listing the Four Pillars of the party below. I hope they will be as important to you as they are to me.
Four Pillars
* Ecological Wisdom
* Social Justice
* Grassroots Democracy
* Nonviolence
