San Francisco Green Party

Last week, Green Party mayoral candidate Terry Joan Baum turned in 1,280 valid signatures from people who want to see her on the ballot, 6th best among all 35 candidates currently in the running.  She beat out several more well-known figures, including Phil Ting, Tony Hall, Joanna Rees, and Michaela Alioto-Pier!

Terry's campaign needs to raise money to pay the remainder of her filing fee, so please visit her web page and donate!

This week, the Baum campaign opened a campaign office at 2940 16th St. Suite 209.  She has also been invited to participate in two more mayoral debates:  Thurs, Aug 18, from 6-8 pm at the West Bay Conference Center in the Fillmore District, and Thurs, Sept. 22, from 7-9 pm at UCSF Cole Hall, 513 Parnassus Ave in the Inner Sunset.

Flouting decades of child labor laws, volunteers for Terry Joan Baum's Mayoral campaign spent the 4th of July holiday gathering signatures at the Mime Troupe's premiere performance in Dolores Park.

Our volunteers all enjoyed this year's play, and we also gathered hundreds of signatures from San Francisco voters to help Terry (a pioneer lesbian playwright) be included on this November's ballot.  We'll continue our efforts to gather 10,000 signatures by the end of July--if you can help, email us at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Green Party mayoral candidate Terry Joan Baum was profiled in the Bay Area Reporter this week.  She has also been invited to a major debate, scheduled on August 30 and sponsored by the Potrero Boosters Neighborhood Association.

This week, the Baum campaign launched her new website.  She has also hired a campaign manager, Tom Goldkuhle.  The campaign is planning a major volunteer mobilization this Saturday in Noe Valley and Upper Market.

The SF Green Party is proud to endorse Terry Joan Baum for Mayor this year!

Terry is a pioneer lesbian playwright and long-time Green Party activist.  She ran for Congress in 2004 against Nancy Pelosi, becoming the first independent candidate to qualify as a write-in candidate since the Black Panthers did it in 1968.

We need to gather 10,000 signatures from SF voters by the end of July to qualify her for the ballot, so we'll be out every weekend as well as many weeknights collecting signatures.
