Candidate Hammons Set to Begin Gathering Ballot Petition Signatures
Starting Friday, May 2nd, Colorado 2nd Congressional District
Candidate Bill Hammons and his supporters will begin circulating
petitions to place Hammons on November's ballot as the Unity Party
candidate for the Second District.
"Our petitions were approved by the Colorado Secretary of State's
office yesterday, and now we're set to gather the required 800
signatures from registered voters in the Second District before
the June 17th deadline," says Hammons. "One of my supporters is
offering a free ipod to whichever volunteer accrues the most
valid signatures on my behalf, and I'm confident my start-up
candidacy will clear the petition hurdle. I've just received my
first candidate debate invitation, as well a first query from
the Western Slope media, and everything seems to be coming
together at exactly the right time."
