On September 18, 2009, the Peace Party changed its name to the Progressive Party. The paperwork was filed with the Oregon Secretary of State (SoS), who will very soon be ordering new voter registration cards that will reflect the name change.

"Progressive" more accurately reflects the party's positions on social justice, consumer advocacy, environmental protection, and worker's rights, in addition to its dedication to peace.

Because Ralph Nader received more than 1% of the statewide Oregon vote in the presidential election, the Peace Party is now qualified to place its candidates on all ballots for partisan office in Oregon through the November 2010 general election.

Nader earned 1.01% of the votes cast in Oregon for U.S. President, just under 18,000.

Peace Party Members: Please leave comments on which races we all should focus on.

Dear Nader/Gonzalez Supporters,

We are looking to kick the Oregon campaign into high gear!! With the recent financial crisis -- a crisis which Ralph predicted and spoke out against long ago -- many people are seeing the light and contributing to the Nader Campaign. All of this interest is coming with rarely a peep about the campaign from the corporate dominated media, which is why we need volunteers to help spread the word!

So if you are interested in volunteering please come to our meeting this Saturday, October 4th at 11 am at the Lucky Labrador Brew Pub, 915 SE Hawthorne Blvd. During this meeting we will be discussing strategies, and distributing campaign materials. So please join us!!

VOLUNTEER MEETING
