Alliance Party Nominates National Ticket

Posted on by April 25, 2020

On the afternoon of April 25, the Alliance Party nominated Rocky De La Fuente for president, and Darcy Richardson for vice-president.  The convention was remote, and participants used Zoom.  The delegates were asked to vote “yes” or “no” on the ticket.  The vote was 24-2.

The party is ballot-qualified in South Carolina and Delaware, and it is fairly likely that it will also be ballot-qualified for president in Connecticut soon.

Alliance Party Nominates National Ticket — 75 Comments

  1. Should be interesting to see how many states they end up being ballot qualified in this China Death Virus From Hell End Of The World scenario. Good luck to Darcy! (And Rocky!)

  2. They already have ballot access in South Carolina as the Alliance Party, and Delaware as the American Delta Party (party started by Rocky in 2016). I do not think they currently have ballot access anywhere else.

    If Rocky and Darcy can also pick up the Reform Party nomination, which Rocky got for President in 2016, and which Darcy got for Governor of Florida in 2018, this would get them ballot access in Florida and maybe one or two other states (I think the Reform Party might still have ballot status in Mississippi and/or Louisiana; I’m pretty sure they lost it everywhere else).

  3. 24-2? OMG.! That is pretty bad even for marginal parties. It is about what the vote was in Boston Tea Party in 2008 and 2012.
    This party clearly is in the same or very similar niche as the Reform party. Centrist. And with Duvergetr’s Law which postulates a two “major” party system, they have no chance to compete for long.
    This smacks of a set up to mer. Delegates chose this ticket or…???What? No ticket? Try again later?
    The object of this set up is to take Darcy out of MY SCENARIOS for him. GP AND LP nominations with Jo Jorgensen as vp.
    Darcy, my recommendation is to resign and file for GP AND LP nominations. Call Jo. Ask her to join you for fusion ticket.
    My hope was that Rocky would use his largess to get the Reform party on ALL ballots and try for THEIR nomination.
    For Top Ten/Six we need for GP,LP, Reform and CP to get on ALL ballots. That would “Level the Playing Field”.
    We KNOW the dems and reps will get on all ballots. So that would make Top Six. Four Independents are unnecessary.
    The other possibility is REPLACE the Reform party with the Alliance party. But still, Darcy, get out of it.

  4. Ok Andy. Perhaps join the Alliance and Reform parties under Rocky. But Darcy get out of it!
    Darcy, do you really want to be involved in a centrist party?

  5. The Reform Party is no longer ballot-qualified in Louisiana, because it went 4 years without a single member of the party running for any office.

  9. How are they trying to qualify for the ballot in Connecticut? Lawsuit? I doubt they are conducting a petition there with the Coronavirus scare lockdown happening.

  10. I’m told the two who voted against Rocky actually wanted to vote for Robert Milnes but he wasn’t there. Too bad.

  12. Are they running for the Reform Party nomination with Rocky for President and Darcy for VP? Last I saw, Darcy was running for the Presidential nomination. I hate when candidates run for President under one ticket and VP for another.

  15. I have received a modest inheritance. I am willing to donate a significant amount to a reasonable PLAS ticket.
    An initial amount followed by additional contributions to a PAC as my suggestions are acted on.
    So Darcy, recruit Jo. Try for the GP and LP nominations. Form a campaign contributions button on a website. Form a PAC.
    Better yet, hire me as special advisor.
    Any other bona fide progressives willing to step up?
    Anyone listed on GP party as candidate or on politics1?
    Howie Hawkins?

  17. Andy, the Connecticut Libertarian Party has a federal lawsuit to force the state to say that if a party got at least 1% for any statewide office, then it is ballot-qualified for all office. It will probably win. If it does, then the Independent Party, which is already ballot-qualified for most of the Connecticut federal and state offices, but not president, will then have president.

  19. Yes, the Independent Party of Connecticut recently became the state affiliate of the Alliance Party.

  20. I see. The Alliance party will scour the Universe and assimilate any and all ballot qualified minor parties in the name of diversity. Resistance is futile.

  21. “Are they running for the Reform Party nomination with Rocky for President and Darcy for VP?” — Michigan Voter

    Yes, we’re seeking the Reform Party nomination with Rocky at the head of the ticket. We’re also seeking the nominations of several smaller, single-state parties. Needless to say, I’m enormously proud to be Rocky’s running mate.

    We’re hoping to stitch together a united ticket under the Alliance Party banner to seriously challenge the increasingly inept, special interest-dominated duopoly in what — until now — had been shaping up as a pretty lean year for America’s minor parties.

    The deadly coronavirus, which has already claimed more than 54,000 American lives as of yesterday — in a little over a month that’s nearly as many U.S. soldiers who died in the unjust and immoral war in Vietnam — has changed everything.

    It should be painfully clear by now that both major parties failed, and failed miserably, to prepare the country for the current Covid-19 pandemic, which, tragically, will likely take hundreds of thousands of American lives before all is said and done. Despite the serious threat of such a future pandemic in the wake of the SARS, Zika virus, MERS and Ebola outbreaks in recent years, neither party adequately prepared the country for a health crisis of this magnitude, not to mention the ensuing economic depression that will almost surely follow, a potentially deep depression from which the country likely won’t soon recover.

    C’mon. Do you want Mitch McConnell and the megalomaniac in the White House, or Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, for that matter, to pull us out of this mess? It’s not going to happen.

    Rocky’s administration would do better, much better, than either Trump or Biden. Perhaps it’s time to put a genuine humanitarian — a man who is far too modest to talk about his own personal generosity and philanthropy — in the Oval Office, particularly at a time such as this.

    I have tremendous respect for all of America’s nationally-organized third parties, but it’s highly unlikely that the country will turn to the anti-government Libertarian Party — a party whose current presidential front-runner wants to abolish Social Security, Medicare and Medicare for the poor — in this kind of environment. It’s also unlikely that voters will flock to the poorly-funded yet well-meaning Greens — a party that unfortunately will be unfairly, but viciously attacked by the Democrats as “spoilers” throughout the course of the 2020 campaign — nor are they likely to cast their votes for the Constitution Party, a pro-life party that is likely to incongruously nominate a deep-pocketed coal baron allegedly responsible for the deaths of 28 miners, in a time of crisis.

    America can do better. We’re asking everyone who loves their country and longs for real leadership in the executive branch to join us.

  23. Men, 70% of all male Libertarian Party Presidential Electors to vote for a female name in 2020, because with 50+ male names and only 10 female Libertarian Party Presidential candidates we turn the “male split-vote problem” into our advantage and practice for November (when we repeat).

    If we can pick up a few more Libertarian Party female Presidential Electors then we can get it done.

    Our team has already accomplished this in California with 28 of the 55 LP needed Electors female names.

    My name isn’t a LP delegate in California because of a clerical error but I can probably serve as back-up in another state should someone write-in my name as Elector below a female name.

    See the new pure proportional representation (PPR) Electoral College:

    http://www.pprelectoralcollege.com

    We welcome new nominees of names to Cabinet, as we practice for winning in November!

  24. Ogle , stop discrimination against all the other genders. Limiting people to two genders is just as wrong as limiting them to two parties.

  25. Good luck to the alliance party, as Evan McMullan demonstrated last time…even if you don’t make a lot of state ballots you can still have a big impact.

  26. Milnes,like ogle, really needs to look past the two biggest genders and stop trying to have them monopolize all the presidential and VP nominations.

  27. ALL parties — more or less CONTROL FREAK STATISM

    FOR 6,000 PLUS YEARS — esp by top monarchs/oligarchs.

    Resistance is NOT futile —

    USA forces with major French help in defeating the Brits in 1775-1784,

    USA free States defeating the slavery tyrants in 1861-1865,

    Allies/United Nations wiping out the Central/Axis STATIST control freak powers in WW I and II,

    and even Janeway and crew wiping out the Borg Queen in the Star Trek III series.

  29. Darcy and Zug,
    Darcy, first of all, I need some sort of proof that you are in fact Darcy. You, and Zug, should AGT LEAST link your name to something, a website, like I ALWAYS do. I received ONE such letter from “Darcy” recently. No more forthcoming. And I see the “Andy tell” after your comment. Almost always upon making a comment in IPR “Andy” promptly makes another comment correcting something in the previous comment. So “Andy”, was it your assignment to drop this one comment from “Darcy”? And how does William S. Saturn fit into this? He lies dormant for months then -now-he is spewing out posts like a gattling gun on IPR. Much like paulie USED TO. Who is WSS? I had many an email exchange with him over years. NOBODY seems to know him or has met him. There does not seem to be a photo of him anywhere on the interweb. A mystery person like Tiffany Briscoe.
    I am real. Photos of me exist on the interweb. I have at least one functioning website. Richard Winger is real. Website, photos, people know and have communicated and met him. Even paulie.
    Darcy not so much. Proof please, that this comment from “Darcy” and the one email to me , actually came from Darcy.

  30. I am not a big fan of Rocky; but, I believe he deserves recognition for plowing the way for third party candidates and those candidates wanting to run on the main party ballot as well.

  31. Darcy, what would you have done? You just say you would do better. That doesn’t give me confidence.

  32. TO: J Ogle

    Perhaps have a quite separate text of your proposed election systems [ legis, exec, judic ] with short examples — esp for new folks.

  33. Yeah, “Darcy”. I’m losing confidence in you myself.
    Get a little more specific.
    Do you have a website or not? Or are you gloming onto Rocky, kind of like Tiffany Briscoe glommed onto Kimberly Johnson Barrick 2012 Boston Tea Party.
    Look at me everybody. I’m Tiffany. Here I am with Kimberly who you all know and love and support. I am not part of a covert operation to destroy you or to divert you from PLAS which vcould very well win the election for the GP and Lp.
    Look at me everybody. I’m Darcy. Here I am with Rich Rocky who you all know and love and support. I am not part of a covert operation to destroy you or to divert you from PLAS which could very well win the election for the GP and LP.
    Remember everybody, I WAS the runner up in 2008 and 2012. There is NO MENTION of me on BTP’s Wikipedia page. My ass is still sore from that.

  34. Chime in anytime, Richard.
    Let’s see you denounce me and PLAS. And Top Ten/Six.
    You were so upset about Top Two. Well here is Top Ten/Six, remedy to Top Two.
    What are you doing about it? NOTHING!

  35. RM — perhaps do your own website

    for your followers and opponents and the general public ???

  36. He does but it’s kind of short on readership. And you would do well to follow your own advice to both ogle and milnes, demo rep.

  37. If no else will, I’ll say it.

    I DENOUNCE PLAS! FUCK IT! ITS A PIECE OF SHIT!

    (P)athetic (L)ousy (A)ssclown SHIT!

    Robert Milnes should focus more on finding the connection between JERKING OFF and Time Travel. He probably would’ve done it and made himself RELEVANT if he stuck to his alliance with the Nazis, who already started researching and experimenting with time travel.

    GET OFF YOUR ASS, WHIP IT OUT AND GET TO WORK!

  39. “Darcy, what would you have done? You just say you would do better. That doesn’t give me confidence.”

    Well, for starters, a De La Fuente administration wouldn’t have squandered at least eight weeks at the beginning of this deadly health crisis calling the coronavirus a “hoax.” Keep in mind that the outbreak occurred shortly after the Trump Administration shuttered the U.S. Agency for International Development’s PREDICT program, which was responsible for identifying and combating new emerging viruses.

    Unlike the current administration, Rocky also wouldn’t have tried to slash federal spending on science and research, including trying repeatedly — and sometimes with success — to cut funding for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s unit for fighting global pandemics.

    Rocky, who owns two assisted living facilities in California, was far more proactive in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic than the current occupant of the White House. In fact, he restricted visitations at both of his facilities in early January, back when the denier-in-chief was still calling this a “hoax,” and fortunately hasn’t had any cases of the coronavirus among his residents, many of whom are in their nineties.

  40. What would your policy be on drinking and injecting bleach to fight the Chinese virus hoax have been?

  42. Once again, Darcy and Zug, and add Fact Checker, Who are you? Let’s see some proof. Link your name to SOMETHING, ANYTHING.
    Fact Checker, thanks for your opinion. But I asked for Richard’s opinion.
    How do we know you and other Alliance Party people are not Russian, Democratic or republican party or Israeli operatives?

  43. For neutral folks–

    RM website apparently.

    How about stay there and NOT bother BAN posts with distraction posts ???
    — which only generate more distraction posts from the BAN usual suspects.

  45. Sorry – BAN all trolls/Putin agents off BAN — like Zug, etc.

    — with their troll distraction posts.

  48. I like Darcy’s answer. But I want to know about bleach. I called the poison control line but they might be fake news.

  49. Do troll puppet masters like Putin, Trump, DNC, RNC, etc. pay trolls on BAN [and elsewhere] by the post, by the number of letters and spaces in a post, by responses or a combo of the preceding ???

  51. Zug = chief troll on BAN ??? — using multiple fake names

    capable only of parrott responses.

  52. Serious question for Darcy… do you plan to go after CP state affiliates (or perhaps I should say ex-affiliates) that are independent of the Constitution Party National Committee? That could get the ticket another couple of states.

  53. Demo Rep, that was a serious response and you are in fact the top troll on this site. Even if I was a troll I couldn’t hold a candle to your trolling excellence. I can see by the triple question marks that you are feeling insecure but don’t worry , your title as king of the trolls here is safe.

    Now seriously, please answer the question . How do they pay you? What’s the turnaround time like? Wired into your account in US dollars? Check in the mail? Brown bag filled with cash behind the toilet at citgo?

  54. Casual,

    Constitution party? Doesn’t sound like a good ideological fit for that coronavirus response.

  55. Couldn’t be communists, I don’t think they have any ballot access anymore and they’re consistently endorsing democrats for going on 40 years now. I think there’s some tiny centrist party but they have no ballot lines either. Any other cp I am forgetting which does?

  57. Maybe he’s more online with their views but if Rocky’s corona response would be like Darcy says it doesn’t sound like a good match at all.

  58. Didn’t the breakaway constitution party faction become part of the life and liberty party with Jr Myers?

  59. Zug, IIRC It. was more like Darcy was saying all third party /independent people should form a new party. So mix and match would be acceptable to all. He specifically said he rejected the GP, which I assumed he was best fit, and the LP. CP seemed fair game and others. To me that meant a centrist party

  60. Darcy just wants ballot access, no matter the party. Hypothetically, If the libertarians offered it to him, he would take it.

  63. Agreed Darcy would. But the constitution party or any faction of it is ideological, are they not? I doubt it would be a good fit from their pov. And don’t they already have a guy? Not the one from the main group but Myers?

  68. I strongly doubt it. One of Rocky’s biggest issues is opposing harsh immigration laws. One of the constitution party’s biggest issues is making them harsher. I don’t see how it works for them regardless of how desperate rocky may be for ballot lines. States are starting to open up, maybe alliance party can still petition their way on in a good few.

  69. Demo Rep

    PPP is not anywhere near you on residency or the other things you mentioned. Your title is safe. There are no contenders anywhere close to ready for a title bout. They’re barely even a good workout for u. Sorry, you will have to wait longer for the competition to stiffen, so to speak.

  71. If he’s a troll he’s about medium level. If he’s not a troll then yes, he’s pathetic.

  72. 4 fake names in a row by the super-evil pathetic useless moron parrott – a new record ???

  74. Demo Rep Thomas Jones is too much of a MORON to realize more than one person thinks he’s a troll.

  75. I never even addressed him at all or said anything about him. I made one on topic comment. For this he labels me a fake name super evil pathetic moron parrot troll? If one of us is a those things it wouldn’t be me.
