    Grass is Not Always Greener on the Other Side

    The Green Party of New Mexico is made up of people from across the political
    spectrum but united around Ten Key Values. There has always been and will
    continue to be a difference of opinion over electoral strategy and the party
    welcomes that diversity. While most Greens in New Mexico and around the
    country are committed to creating a multi-party democracy and running as
    many Green Party candidates as possible in every election, a small minority
    from time to time chose to support candidates of other parties.

    Most Greens in New Mexico and across the county will not be supporting
    Dennis Kucinich or any other Democrat for President. They will be supporting
    the Green Party candidate for President, whether it is Ralph Nader or one of
    the four other declared candidates. Most Greens want an alternative to
    Democrat and Republican candidates and are very focused on the long term
    goal of building a new political force in the United States,² stated Joe
    Lacayo, Co-Chair GPNM.

    "We thank David Bacon for his 2002 run for Governor," continued Lacayo, "and
    while we disagree with his decision to register Democrat to support Dennis
    Kucinich that is his decision. While other Greens may also make this
    decision, most Greens realize that for Kucinich to energize his campaign he
    has to attract Democrats, not Greens."

    Democrats are 52% of the registered voters in NM; Greens are 1% statewide,
    although registration is 4% in several counties. Kucinich consistently ranks
    in last place among the Democrat candidates, somewhere between 0 and 2%.

    GPNM respects the diversity and independence of its members and will welcome
    back any Greens that try out other parties.

    "We are strong in the knowledge that we are part of a national and
    international movement that stands for peace, non-violence, economic and
    social justice. The Green Party opposes the death penalty, stands for real
    election reform, saving the environment, honoring the rights of indigenous
    people, a living wage for all workers and universal health care," said Carol
    Miller, Co-Chair.

    The Green Party of New Mexico will have a June 1, 2004 primary election to
    select delegates to the Presidential Nominating Convention, to be held in
    Milwaukee, Wisconsin from June 24 -­ 26, 2004.
