On Thursday, the three of us inquired what happened with our party affiliation. We had made the changes last year and the guy (with a gut and beige-colored shirt) CHANGED it that day!
I further inquired on what is the different among the political party and got a two-paged `Political Party Statement of Purpose`. Here is the .pdf file from the `California Secretary of State` website: Political Party.
Below is the text to the .pdf file:
PEACE AND FREEDOM PARTY
Voting for Peace and Freedom Party candidates means voting to stop the killing now and end this stupid, brutal war. Our party saw through the lies and opposed this war from the beginning. Vote for immediate withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan!
The Peace and Freedom Party works for the needs of working people, not the rich. Vote for decent jobs for all, for doubling the minimum wage, to end poverty and homelessness.
Vote for us to support taxing the wealthiest Americans and their corporations to provide a decent life for the working people who create all of America’s wealth. We need free quality education from preschool to the university level. We need good medical care for everyone. We need to protect and restore the environment.
The Peace and Freedom Party actively fights discrimination, corruption, oppression, and exploitation. We believe that working people should own and run the economy for everyone’s benefi t. Register and vote Peace and Freedom Party for a better California and a better world.
State Central Committee primary endorsements: Jordan (Governor), Alexander (Lieutenant Governor), Akin (Secretary of State), Barrón (Controller), Sanders (Treasurer), Harrison (Attorney General), Condit (Insurance Commissioner), Feinland (Senate). Please check our websites for more information.

GREEN PARTY
The Green Party is a values-based, international political phenomenon, with thousands of offi ceholders worldwide in elected municipal, county, and federal public offi ces. Since 1992, the Green Party of California (GPCA) members and candidates have promoted and represented Green Party key values for California voters.
The 145,000-strong GPCA membership is an integrated federation of community-based Locals and Regional Councils. Consensus and gender balance ideals prevail. General Assembly delegates convene semi-annually at plenaries to explore and discover political policies that will realize Green values, among them, living wages, affordable health care and housing, and an end to the war in Iraq.
Green volunteers populate GPCA committees and working groups that interact to build party membership, elect Green candidates, manage fi nances, advise on rules and procedures, and publicize party policies. Greens advocate for electoral reforms such as proportional representation, instant run-off voting, and publicly fi nanced campaigns, which maximize representation, save resources, and create a level candidate playing field.
GPCA caucuses include Labor, Disability, Lavender, Black, People of Color, Ethnic Minority, Rural, Candidates, Women’s, Campus, and Secular Greens.
The Green Party of California offers voters the attainable politics of peace, ecological wisdom, and social justice.
Vote your conscience. Vote Green.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY
The Libertarian Party is as American as apple pie. Like you, we have jobs, businesses, families, and dreams. We’ve entered the political arena to restore liberty and American values. We’re working toward a government that taxes and spends less, and won’t interfere with your personal life.
If you describe yourself as socially tolerant and fi scally responsible, you’re a Libertarian!
We believe you—not the government—should decide how to run your life, checkbook, retirement, education, and family.
The Libertarian Party supports your right to:
- keep what you earn. Reduce or eliminate taxes whenever possible.
- run your own business and enjoy your property. Reducing regulations and paperwork creates more jobs, higher pay, and lower prices.
- educate your children as you see fit.
- choose your own lifestyle. The government shouldn’t consider you a criminal because of your choices in relationships, recreation, or medical treatment.
- truly equal treatment under the law regardless of race, gender, religion, sexuality, or personal characteristics.
- own a firearm. Self-defense is a right, not a political favor.
With over 60 elected Libertarians in California and over 600 offi ceholders countrywide, we’re a real and growing choice.

REPUBLICAN PARTY
Republicans are proud of the leadership provided to our state by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Governor Schwarzenegger eliminated the car tax that crippled Californians. His economic policies have helped create over 450,000 new jobs in California. His program for workers compensation reform has saved businesses money and has kept jobs in California.
Now, through his Strategic Growth Plan, the Governor is laying the groundwork for a systematic program of fi xing our roads and bridges and rebuilding California’s infrastructure, all without raising taxes. This will attract new jobs and new opportunities for future generations of Californians.
The Republican Party, under the leadership of Governor Schwarzenegger, represents the best chance for freedom and opportunity for every Californian.
Re-electing our Governor and other Republicans to offi ce will help ensure schools that are safe and accountable; hold the line on taxes; and keep growing California’s economy. Join us in helping build a better California that provides opportunity for our families today, and for future generations.
