Summary

Aaron james campaign. Campaign is still going door-to-door. 13 more days left. Also planning a final literature drop.

November run for local office conference. Greens expressed interest. Will also check with Socialist Alternative, and people we know who have held local office. Tentative topics:

  • what you can do in local govt
  • running for town meeting
  • running for ohter town and city offices
  • what does a local pirate platform look like

We'd like to give another presentation in Western MA. Still trying to find contacts to help coordinate the logistics.
