The ILGP welcomed Nader's submission of signatures to get on the
ballot here in Illinois.  We are decidedly non-sectarian.  We are
collaborating with the local PSL group, and have PSL members running
for state representative (John Beacham and Heather Benno) on the ILGP
ballot line.


Good for you/ILGP.  I've seen some recent comments skeptical of this
approach...

In 1992 in Utah i was participating in a small alliance of socialist
activists called Utah Socialists - which included members of SP, DSA, IWW,
former North Star Network/SWP, independents (and later CP, CoC and
Solidarity).  Utah Socialists decided to and did succeed in putting two
presidential candidates on the Utah ballot:  Ron Daniels of the Campaign for
a New Tomorrow and J.Quinn Brisben of the Socialist Party.
