Rally for Peirce Oct 4, Wednesday

Debate Rally in Cincinnati Tomorrow

Ted Strickland and Ken Blackwell will participate in their third of four debates on Wednesday, October 4, at the Patricia Corbett Theater at the University of Cincinnati. Yet again, I was not invited to participate in the debate. The continued exclusion of independent and minor-party candidates significantly undermines the democratic process, which fails to serve its function when voters are kept in the dark about their options at the polls. Unless they are able to hear from all candidates, voters are denied their right to make informed decisions about the leadership of their own state and communities. As one columnist has noted, the inclusion of independent and minor party candidates in debates has a markedly beneficial effect on the elections process: http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2006/10/01/debate_rich_on_issues/?rss_id=Boston+Globe+--+Eileen+McNamara+columns

Peirce supporters and volunteers are invited to rally together before the debate tomorrow. We will be meeting at 5:15 pm on Corry Blvd., by Gettler Stadium (the soccer field), which is located near Nippert football stadium.

Hope to see you there
