We do not have a Green ballot line for Congressional District 3 (Rosa DeLauro's seat), but the Independent Party does. Anyone can apply for endorsement, but I think they are especially looking for a pro-Palestine candidate. (Or should I say pro-ceasefire, since
"pro-Palestine" does not necessarily play well with Jewish voters?)

Hi everyone,
As you can see below, Ben Wesley was successful in putting his name in consideration for the CD-4 ballot line under the?CT INDEPENDENT PARTY, as a??pro-Palestine candidate!? According to Chip Beckett's texts, there is still time to put in a CD-3 candidate
hat in the ring at the last minute, as per his instructions below, since parties only have to give their candidates to the state for printing on the ballot in early September to my knowledge:
Me: “Is it too late for someone to put their name in the ring for CD-3? Thanks”
Chip: ”Fill out the questionnaire and pledge and the group can discuss” Me: ” Does the candidate have to be registered in CD-3?” Chip: “I think so, in order to take the seat” Would anyone receiving this email, who is formally registered in the Greater New Haven area's federal Congressional district (CD-3), wish to be a CD-3 pro-Palestine CT INDEPENDENT PARTY candidate?? Even if not, would you konw of
someone else who you think would be interested?? If so, please let us know ASAP, because the deadline might be before this Sunday. Please find the relevant websites below for the questionnaire and
as per Chip Beckett's instructions above.? Attached are Ben Wesley's sample answers as well.
thanks.

Independent Party Members
2.? ??Fill out the??and email
to?info@...?where
it will be reviewed by our State Central Committee (SCC).? 3.? ??Sign the?s (attached) and email to??info@....?? 4.? ??Please advise the State Central Committee of your intentions to run by?......?.?The SCC will review and endorse candidates on a rolling basis in Late July through August.??Endorsements need to be made to the Secretary of State’s office by?September 4, 2024. But since one might be often unopposed, you probably would have a good chance. But they don’t do much foreign policy.? I guess one would be fighting their wish to cross endorse the Republican and keep ballot access by getting at least 1% of the votes. So it appears that if you wish to be considered for their nomination as a candidate, if they have ballot line access, (which they do for CD-3), you have to appeal to them and their? self described “centrism” to approve you as their candidate.? One might
look at their legislative desires here:

From:?Benjamin Wesley? Date: Mon, Aug 12, 2024 at 8:55?PM Subject: Pro-Palestinian State and Ceasefire Congressional Candidacy in CD-4 Hi everyone,
Some of you know the Independent Party of Connecticut has ballot access for Congress in the 4th district of Connecticut(includes Bridgeport, Norwalk and Stratford).? Because none of the major candidates(Congressman Jim Himes nor the 2 republican
challengers) have committed to a ceasefire and a free independent Palestine, I've submitted an application for the ballot access for the congressional seat.? The Independent Party will make it's decision this Sunday, 8/18 at the Elks club in Glastonbury, CT
at 2pm.? I will be in attendance at that meeting along with Stephanie.? I'm trying to recruit other independent party candidates to join me.
