The first polls which include our campaign are out, and the news is reasonably good, all things considered. We're at 6% right now, with Dalton at 40% and Pittenger at 36%. Considering how little money we've spent and the small amount of media attention we've received, I'm very happy with that number. BUT... this battle is FAR from over, and 6% ain't gonna win no election, folks. So... for those of you supporting this campaign, please consider making a small financial contribution, or contact me to sign up as a campaign volunteer, and/or spend some time spreading the word to friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc. We have a chance to make a difference in this election... and even if I'm not elected, we can very well change the outcome of the election and send a message to the established parties that you ignore those with our principles at your own peril. But in order to do that, it's going to take a tremendous grass-roots effort... I definitely can't do it alone! |

Request For A Small Favor |

Dear friends and supporters, I would like to ask all of you for a small favor. If you have an account on Facebook, please follow this link and click the "Become a Supporter" link. We would really like to surpass Dalton and Pittenger in at least one easily measured metric, and "number of online supporters" would be a good one. When we surpass them, it will be a good opportunity to stir up some media attention for our campaign. Realistically, we're unlikely to raise as much money as either of our opponents at this stage of the game, so we need to exploit every opportunity to demonstrate the support this campaign has. Getting even a small victory like this will give us more credibility which will lead to more supporters, which leads to more money, which leads to ... well, you get it. We need to start a virtuous circle feedback loop. And with your help, we can do it. Thanks! |

The Issues page has now been updated with my Drug War plank. To summarize, I am calling for an immediate end to North Carolina's participation in the so called "War on Drugs" as it is both immoral and unjust, as well as ineffective and harmful. For more on this topic, please see: http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig7/alston6.html, http://www.lp.org/issues/crime-and-violence, and http://lpnc.org/issue_papers.php#drug_war. |
