The Green Party appeared to be the big third-party winners in Tuesday’s elections, climbing two spots on the ballot for the next four years, while Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Women’s Equality Party was poised to just squeak by with the 50,000 votes necessary to join the ballot. With nearly 165,000 votes, the Green Party, which served as an outlet for liberal protest votes, bypassed another progressive group, the Working Families Party, as well as the Independence Party, Capital New York is reporting. Im proud to have supported Howie Hawkins for NY Governor & his campaign has established the Green Party as the leading third party in the state, displacing the discredited Working Families Party, which cravenly endorsed Cuomo for re-election just to retain its ballot line. Bravo, Howie, and kudos to all those who made this great advance for the Green Party possible~! paulinepark/2014/10/howie-hawkins-vs-andrew-cuomo-in-the-2014-new-york-governors-race/ capitalnewyork/article/albany/2014/11/8556093/green-party-rises-expense-working-families
