Cobb to hold press conference today in SF!

by Brian (IamB [at] riseup.net)
Green Party Candidate David Cobb will hold a SF Press Conference today urging Californians to invest their vote to support the Green Party and progressive politics.
Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb will hold a press conference in San Francisco on Monday, November 1 and will encourage Californians not to waste their votes on Election Day. The press conference will begin at 3 p.m. at 484 Frederick Street in the Upper Haight section of San Francisco. Cobb will be joined by local and Congressional Green Party candidates.

Cobb is concentrating on California in the final days of the campaign to support the many highly-qualified Greens running for office there and to pick up votes from progressives who don’t have to worry that voting for Cobb will help keep Bush in the White House. Since California will undoubtedly be won by Kerry and because the election will be decided on a state by state basis, there is no chance that Cobb can be accused of playing a “spoiler” role in California.

“My message for the people of California is this: Don’t waste your votes! Invest your votes in the only national political party which is working for peace, an end to the war in Iraq, for single-payer universal health insurance and family wage jobs,” said Cobb.

Over two hundred Greens hold elected offices nationwide; 65 of them in California alone. Green Party officials expect to pick up another 50 seats across the nation on Tuesday.

Cobb will be available for media interviews on Tuesday morning, from 7—10 a.m. Contact Media Director Blair Bobier at 541.929.5755 or 414.364.1596 to make arrangements for an interview.
