The Atlantic reports that one New York gubernatorial candidate is touting "The Rent Is Too Damn High" as his campaign platform. Jimmy McMillan formed the party and ran in 2006 for governor, and then for Mayor of New York City in 2005 and 2009. This year, he has a rap song to note his feelings regarding taking "damn" out of his party's name. The official ballot language for McMillan's cause is "The Rent Is 2 Damn High Party." You can hear more of McMillan's words on his own website. He actually joined frontrunners Andrew Cuomo and Carl Paladino on stage for a recent debate. Other fringe candidates are not quite so dire, but have serious platforms to try to unseat the established parties. One candidate in particular, although she has long odds of winning, might just make waves in California. Laura Wells Laura Wells on her website has said she will stay away from negative campaigning used by mainstream candidates in the California governor's race. She is running on the Green Party ticket on Nov. 2, 2010, and supports the legalization of marijuana in California; gay rights, including the right to marry; and an immigration policy that goes against Arizona's SB 1070. As you can imagine, much of the platform of the Green Party includes more sustainable uses of energy production. To this end, Wells advocates a more local approach to California's power needs. This includes solar and wind power in communities, publicly owned utilities, and a need for more employment to help weatherize homes and make energy usage more efficient. With California's large population and huge amounts of power consumption, these ideas only make sense. Laura Wells comes from a non-political background, as she has run for state controller twice and is a vocal leader in local and statewide Green Party meetings. Her Facebook page touts over 1,400 people "like" Laura Wells for governor. Wells has one daughter who was homeschooled, and is a native of Michigan. Wells recently made news when she was arrested on Oct. 12, 2010, while trying to enter a debate between Meg Whitman and Jerry Brown in San Rafael. Wells had a ticket to attend the debate but was arrested because she was a candidate for governor, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. In her blog, Wells stated she was arrested for trespassing on private property since Dominican University is a private college. Although the Green Party isn't as established or well-funded as the Democrats or Republicans, Wells makes several key points and impassioned pleas to Californians. Many pundits believe the marijuana legalization on the ballot may actually pass this year, and Wells can certainly derive some votes from that. If the rest of the state is fed up with the two main parties, then Laura Wells may well be a sleeper candidate who could actually win. With so many Tea Party upsets already this year, who knows what could happen? Sources: Good, Chris, "Jimmy McMillan: The Rent Is Too Damn High", The Atlantic.
