While these are NYS candidates, I think you'll find the debate instructive and entertaining. Besides, Mike McDermott (http://www.votemcdermott.org is arguably our strongest candidate to get the coveted and elusive 50,000 votes the LP needs for Ballot Access . With ballot access, we won't have to petition, a cumbersome and expensive process, for the next four years, or the number of petition signatures we must submit will go way down. For example, our Congressional candidates now require a minimum of 3,500 signatures (though 5,000 is usually submitted to withstand challenges), but with ballot access, that number goes down to five or ten.
Thanks for reading.
