Yes, anyone residing in these areas, we need you. It is the 26th assembly district,NY. To collect signatures to get Vito on the ballot you must be a registered voter and live in the district, it does not matter what party you are registered in because until we can get 50,000 votes for a gubernatorial candidate our candidates(Loyalist party) will be considered as independents for the signature collecting process, which is to our advantage. On the other hand the thing that goes against us, established parties(rep, dem) need to collect 500 signatures for this position, we need to collect 1,500. The signatures are there, we just need the volunteers to go get them. I am currently breaking down the district into smaller ed's(election districts) and numbering the registered independents, conservatives, republicans, etc. in each district. This will help us to better zero in on neighborhoods where we are likely to get more support. The time frame to collect signatures is usually about a month and it will be sometime from June to August, 2008, so we have time to build an army of signature gatherers, but we need to start recruiting now. We will also be collecting signatures during the same time frame to get a referendum on the ballot, available in NYC, to actually debate the quran and hadiths to determine if islam should be afforded the designation of a Religion. It is more detailed than that but we can get into that later. Any registered voter residing anywhere in NYC can collect signatures for this and sign this. Also, anyone wanting to help Vito but does not live in his district, there is still plenty you can do if you are interested. In late November, early December, we are just working on the bookings right now, Vito's campaign and the launch of the NY Loyalist Party will kick off with a special event. We need all the help we can get. If interested please get in touch with Vito or myself. If you are outside of NY and want to get involved check out loyalistparty.com or contact Brian who is a member here. I am the interim chair for the NY Loyalist party, Brian is the national chair.
Also, anyone else who believes in the Loyalist platform and is interested in running for office themselves in NYC, we would love to hear from you. In NYC , in 2009, most of the current city council will be term limited, meaning no incumbents to run against, meaning a much better chance for a novice candidate, just something to keep in mind.
