A matchbook advertising campaign has started to let smokers
know about a Libertarian Party alternative to politics-as-usual. To find
out more click here.
The matches suggest resistance to prohibitions and try to steer smokers to http://www.ny.lp.org/resist . From the resist web page viewers can go to our 'Choice' marketing theme http://www.ny.lp.org/choice in an attempt to have them question their prevailing assumptions and maybe even join or support us. This form of advertising can be sponsored by anyone. *******
Project 62 Monthly Meetings. Simply, to develop a thriving county chapter in each of New York's 62 counties. Right now we have seven chapters, with various levels of activity. Plenty of room for improvement. No deadline, but efforts to reach the goal can be made every day. Even partial success would be great. 63 in 2005 It appears that each county will have at least one countywide position on the ballot in November 2005. The idea is to place a person, almost any person, on the ballot in each county, plus for New York City Mayor. By setting that as a goal, we would stimulate activity among LP members in each county. The process in each county would be: (1) candidates (2) money (3) petitions (4) votes. State Plus 29 in 2006 Our next focus should be on the races for U.S. House of Representatives. That will best lead to the LP being taken more seriously. The U.S. Congress is where the most damage, and good, can be done, and people know that. Each of the 29 Congressional districts in New York covers such a large area, that it will be easier to find a worthwhile candidate for each. Last but not least, all 13 districts north of New York City, and three districts on Long Island, are cross-county districts, which means the petitions for those candidates can be combined with the statewide petitions for filing purposes. Meaning, the obtaining of the required 3,500 signatures for each Congressional race in those districts, will count towards the 15,000 signatures required for the Governor's race. Of course, the LP should also run candidates in the other 13 districts in New York City and Long Island, since getting them on the ballot will be no harder than elsewhere.
