PA: Green Urges Readers to Sign Independents' Ballot Access Petititons

From a letter to the York Dispatch:
It's that time of year when third party and independent candidates must collect signatures to get their names on the ballot. This petitioning exercise is like the primary election for independent candidates, and I encourage all York countians to assist in this process with your signature of approval. 
Of special interest this year is Green Party senate candidate Mel Packer. Mel is a physician's assistant working in Pittsburgh and is a person of extraordinary character and conviction. He has been a champion for clean elections financing, universal health care, equal opportunity housing, workers' rights and environmental protection for many decades. For more information see www.melpacker.com.
Regardless of your party affiliation, please sign the petitions and help the more independent-minded candidates add their perspectives to the commonwealth's political process.
Steve Baker
Chairman
Green Party of York County
