[web petition, mix of Democrats and Greens have signed - from a friend - Will] ----- forwarded message ---- Date: Sat, 4 Nov 2000 17:28:45 -0800 (PST) From: "William Kreuter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I agree with the purpose of this petition (which, by the way, is not one of those chain-mail petitions which one should always avoid). Why not follow the link and decide if you'd like to sign it, too. As far as I can tell, though, this petition does nothing to start an initiative process and it therefore probably will be ignored.

Please work to apply similar actions in your state.) Forward this message freely: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Friends in the state of WA, We are being told that we can't vote for who we really want in the presidential election without "wasting" our vote. There is a simple way to fix this problem, albeit not in time for this election: (IRV) Instant Runoff Voting. Find out about this simple solution to the two-party problem and sign the petition in support of it at http://www.petitiononline.com/WaIRV/ You can also find out more about electoral reform in general at http://www.fairvote.org
