Hammons to Submit Petition Signatures on Monday



Unity Party 2nd Congressional District Candidate Bill Hammons will be submitting over 1,200 voter signatures for his petition drive to the Secretary of State's office on Monday, June 16th at 11am, one day before the deadline. Eight hundred valid voter signatures are required for Hammons to appear on November's ballot next to the words "Unity Party."

"Monday will be a momentous day both for my candidacy and for the Unity Party of America," says Hammons. "Whether my petition drive meets the original deadline or will require a curative period, it's virtually certain that I and the Unity Party will both be appearing on November's ballot. With my nomination, the Unity Party will be recognized as a qualified political organization in the State of Colorado, will be able to register Colorado voters with the party, and thus will be well on the way to being a force in both Colorado and federal politics. I hope and predict that our success here will inspire Unity Party members in the other 22 states where we have a presence.

"And I also hope that the local media will attend my visit to the Secretary of State's office to provide the coverage this event deserves."
