Support in Alaska posted by Katie Schlieper on 07-03-2008 Well this is good news out of Alaska. Thirty-six of 46 candidates who responded to a survey by the Alaska Public Interest Research Group support the Clean Elections ballot initiative that is set to be voted on in August. The survey was distributed to 133 candidates and most of the respondents were challengers. While more support from incumbents would be helpful, this survey shows word about the initiative is spreading and people familiar with the rigors of campaigning are receptive to the idea. Published in: Alaska | Clean Elections New Jersey Consequences posted by Katie Schlieper on 07-03-2008 The Courier-Post weighs in on what the ramifications of the Supreme Court ruling on the Millionaire's Amendment might be for the New Jersey Clean Elections program. Sen Bill Baroni (R), a fervent backer of Clean Elections, criticizes the decision that "certainly does nothing to advance the cause of cleaning up politics." The 2007 cycle of the state's Clean Elections program was very successful -- a good counterweight to any arguments for it being significantly altered.

My fellow Americans,
I always wanted to say that! The FEC is unable to pay matching fed funds for numerous reasons, BS "because of several forms that won't download from their webpage." Clearly the money set aside on our tax forms is available only to Harvard and Yale Grads, like Obama and Clinton. The same story from the media. It's a sham to be sure.. The independent candidate is shut out, you have your 3 choices America SENATORS Obama, Clinton or Mc Cain. Thank God for Votesmart.org RC Jorgensen2008 Horse Sense for World that is unside down. Vote for money or Love this November 2008 It's your choice. What is best for the USA more of the same or Real Change?
