Your vote in the June 5th primary is essential this year because of the changes in the California law concerning primaries. 

Congressional and State-wide races now have an 'open primary,'  which means that you can vote for any candidate without regard to party HOWEVER only the top two vote-getters will advance to the November ballot. Clearly the intent is to silence third party candidates.

That means that I must either come in first or second on June 5th or I am barred from running in November.  Please remember to go to the polls on June 5 and vote for me.
 
It is important to our district and nation that we hold our incumbent's feet to the fire: where is the push to prosecute those responsible for the 2008 financial meltdown, the largest transfer of wealth in history? Why isn't our representative leading a charge to reform a monetary system that is exacerbating the divide between rich and poor?  Where is the outrage from our incumbent on the use of drones?  Why isn't our incumbent introducing legislation to reduce our military presence across the globe rather than voting for appropriations to give the military even more money?  

Having me, a Green Party candidate, running head-to-head with our incumbent Democratic who has favored corporate interests over people will draw attention to all the issues that the pro-war, pro-corporate parties want us to ignore.  This can only happen if you go out and vote for me on June 5.  A vote for Carol Brouillet on June 5 is a vote for peace, for a reduced military, for corporate accountability, for the freedoms that we cherish as Americans.

We look forward to your support,

Sincerely,
Carol Brouillet
