Jess Spear in Seattle, Washington. There is a coalition attempt with SA and Green Party in the Pac-NW. Caleb is mentioned in this article who is a Pacific Green and had strong SA/ISO backing ($15hr/min wage etc.). Hawkins campaign in NYC is doing the same coalition building. [And in some cities, socialist groups like Spear’s have played key roles in pushing that debate. In Portland, Nicholas Caleb, backed by both Socialist Alternative and the International Socialist Organization (ISO), failed to win a city council seat in the last election but is credited with advancing the “15 Now” agenda in that city. In New York, Solidarity and Socialist Party member Howie Hawkins and ISO member Brian Jones are running for governor and lieutenant governor on the Green Party ticket and are polling at 9 percent, closing the gap between the two major party candidates.]
