The
Bill of Rights is without a doubt one of the most important provisions of the US Constitution. The nation celebrates Bill of Rights Day on December 15.
While Bill of Rights Day isn't one of the more high profile holidays, it will be an ideal opportunity to organize a signature drive.
Download a copy of the Bill of Rights and a copy of the
LPNC ballot access petition. Make plenty of copies of the
Bill of Rights and several copies of the petition. Pick a day (or two) around the 15th, find a busy location, and offer passersby a copy of the Bill of Rights in celebration of Bill of Rights Day. Once you have their attention, ask if they will sign the petition.
Sometimes one of the hardest things about petitioning is approaching perfect strangers and asking them to sign. Breaking the ice with the "gift" of a copy of the Bill of Rights should make the task easier. Even if they don't sign, they are reintroduced to this important document.
If you have additonal questions regarding the petition drive, contact LPNC Ballot Access Director,
Bob Ritchie. Thanks for your help!
