Independent candidate Carol Miller expects to turn in approximately 12,000 signatures on June 4. She is running for U.S. House, 3rd district, New Mexico. The legal requirement is 5,779 signatures. She will be the second independent candidate for U.S. House on the ballot in New Mexico history (the first was in 1996; New Mexico did not have procedures for independent candidates for any office until 1977).
It is believed that Miller will be the only U.S. House candidate in the nation in 2008 who will have overcome a petition requirement greater than 5,000 signatures, although it is always possible that someone else will qualify later this year in one of the few states that requires even more signatures for U.S. House.

Is this suggesting then that Richard Winger, you feel Sheehan won’t make her signature requirements?
Yes, over the weekend I telephoned Cindy Sheehan’s office twice to see if I could get a blank petition. There was a big street fair in my neighborhood. But no one answered the phone either time. And no one has returned my messages.
Carol Miller is not affiliated with the Green Party, or at least her candidacy for US House isn’t. She is running as an independent. Why? I believe she’s a Naderite and committed to moving away from the GP, since (correct me if I’m wrong) the petitioning requirement for an independent is substantially higher out there than for a party-nominated candidate. You’d have to have a pretty good reason to run as an independent under NM law.
One more SEPARATE IS NOT EQUAL ballot access system.
dave gaines strikes again.
do nothing.
know nothing.
All talk.
Dave Gaines.
Well, that will be very unfortunate if Sheehan doesn’t make it on to the ballot. I wonder what happened?
Friends of Ballot Access,
I filed 11,000 signatures on Wednesday June 4th. Signatures are still coming in through the mail and are out there around the district. We estimate that close to 12,000 signed the petition.
Please share the website http://www.carolmillercongress.com. I hope you will contribute and encourage others to support the campaign.
I am running Independent because I am independent and want to run and represent everyone in the district, without consideration of party.
Thank you,
Carol
