Alesch: More excellent Green Party convention coverage.
1) The Unconventional Convention: Going Green in the Windy City by Bryan Miller
Bryan Miller even brings up the obligatory Nader/Gore 2000 election reference seemingly required whenever a story is written about the Green Party and actually dispels the myth that Nader was the spoiler. It's nice to read a story where the writer is well researched and is actually dispensing truth, not a pack of lies.

2) Letter to the editor from Patrick Kelly, ILGP Media Coordinator
Patrick Kelly blasts the Tribune writer for blatantly showing his political bias and just re-hashing old clichés rather then just reporting what actually happened at the convention. read more »

Steve Alesch, Green Party candidate for the Illinois 13th
Congressional District, called on his established party rivals,
incumbent Rep. Judy Biggert (R-Hinsdale) and Scott Harper
(D-Lockport), to refrain from orchestrating challenges to their newest
opponent, Eric Ferguson of Lockport. Ferguson, who is running as a
Libertarian, filed his petitions and statement of candidacy today with
the Illinois Board of Elections.
"Competition among parties and independents in our elections is a
healthy part of democracy," said Alesch. "And while we may not agree
on all the issues, I welcome the Libertarian Party into the race." read more »

Warrenville, IL – Illinois 13th Congressional Green Party candidate
Steve Alesch denounced his opponent, Judy Biggert, today for voting to
continue to fund the illegal occupation and pillaging of Iraq.
"Unfortunately, there are 17 million reasons why this illegal occupation
continues and both Democrats and Republicans in Congress today
overwhelmingly voted to give President Bush yet another $162 billion, to
perpetuate the carnage indefinitely in Iraq and Afghanistan, without any
requirements to ever end the illegal occupation in Iraq.", said Mr. Alesch. read more »
