Support Public Campaign Financing in Chapel Hill:

Submitted by KatyMunger on Tue, 05/13/2008 - 8:16pm

If you live in Chapel Hill – we’d really appreciate your support for the town’s new public campaign financing pilot program at a hearing on Wed. May 14th! If the program is implemented and succeeds, it could really open up access to public office for progressive candidates while limiting the influence of special interest money on local policy.

Wayne Goodwin Becomes First Insurance Commissioner Candidate to Refuse Special Interest Money and To Opt-In to Public Financing

Submitted by Wayne Goodwin on Wed, 03/05/2008 - 8:34am

Wayne Goodwin yesterday became the first 2008 Insurance Commissioner candidate to refuse special interest money: Challenges Dem, GOP opponents to do the same

Note from James:

This is one of those special moments in politics where a $20 contribution to a Democrat from an average citizen counts just as much as a $2000 contribution from an insurance executive to a Republican. Wayne needs 750 registered North Carolina voters to step up in the next few weeks. Please consider supporting this important effort.
