Dear NC delegate:

I posted the following response to the story on the Ballot Access News
website


      Cynthia McKinney Cinches Green Party Nomination
      <http://www.ballot-access.org/2008/05/26/cynthia-mckinney-cinches-gre=
en-party-nomination/>

In service:

Brent McMillan, Political Director
Green Party of the United States

This story is factually incorrect. Cynthia McKinney would need to have
419 delegates in order to have over 50% of the delegates. She currently
has 243 delegates. If you want the accurate total of those delegates
assigned as certified by their state committees go to:

The Green Party is not making any judgements about who is going to get
the nomination until our national convention takes place in Chicago July
10 - 13. For more information about the convention:
