	P&F Campaign 2006: Ballot Status Fight
		Whenever the registration of any party that qualified in the previous direct primary election falls below one-fifteenth of 1 percent of the total state registration, that party shall not be qualified to participate in the primary election but shall be deemed to have been abandoned by the voters.
		If it is proposed to disqualify a party that was qualified to participate in the next preceding direct primary, notice of intention to disqualify shall be served by registered mail on the chairperson of the state central committee of the party, as shown by the records of the Secretary of State.
		There are three ways for a political party to qualify to have its candidates appear on the primary ballot, one of which is by having a number of registered voters that’s equal to or more than 1% of the total number of people who voted in the prior gubernatorial election.

	Peace & Freedom Party Regains Ballot Status : SF Indymedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		A socialist party on the California ballot for 30 years, from 1968 to 1998, has just regained ballot status, riding the rising tide of the worldwide peace and justice movements, in time to build for the presidential campaign of 2004, which promises to be crucial in these watershed times.
		The difference between Peace & Freedom Party and all other parties on the ballot is that P&F does not support capitalism, which it views as the primary problem, and in particular, the profit motive of capitalism being the heart of the problem.
		The Peace and Freedom Party believes it was removed illegally from the ballot because the Secretary of State refused to count all of its 100,000-plus registrants - both active and inactive - toward its ballot qualification.

	Xpress Online - Election 2000
		Judging from the party's absence from this year's political front, the Peace and Freedom Party utopia is not a popular view among voters.
		The extreme leftist party was dumped off the ballot after the 1998 election when it failed to meet the 2 percent quota of the vote for its statewide candidates.
		The party's main creed is socialism, which turns the management of industry over to the general public instead of the wealthy portion of society like in a capitalist culture.

	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Cambridge Peace and Freedom Party Terminates Existence After Two Years
		The Cambridge Peace and Freedom Party, formed in 1968 to organize residents of the City around radical causes, has decided to disband.
		The party had been generally inactive since last fall, when a Superior Conrt judge ruled that the proposed rent-control referendum was unconstitutional and the Peace and Freedom candidate received less than one per cent of the votes cast in the City Council race.
		But since most of us in Peace and Freedom are young and new to the community, we do not know many people in Cambridge and have found that we are unable to build this kind of movement at this time," it read.

	[No title]
		Established on January 23, 1967, the Peace and Freedom Party (PFP) describes its founders as "people who wanted to vote for something they could support." According to PFP, this ruled out candidates of both major parties and required the organization to support a party that was more radical.
		PFP also calls for an "end [to] discrimination based on race, sex, age, sexual orientation, or disability." It follows up this demand by imploring the government to "restore affirmative action" (i.e., racial, ethnic, and gender preferences) as a means of "enforc[ing] non-discrimination in hiring and promotion."
		Peltier's opponent in the PFP presidential primary that year was convicted cop-killer Mumia Abu Jamal.

	The Collegian: Third- Party Politics
		There are a variety of political parties to choose from, ranging from extreme right-wing to radical left-wing and everywhere in between.
		For instance, one speaker for the party does not believe in abortion “for medical, emotional, and spiritual reasons,” but does not feel that he can force his party and this nation to share his moral beliefs.
		That may be why the party feels it needs a clever marketing strategy to draw in supporters- the 2004 nominee for president chose an adult film star as his running mate in order to “close the publicity gap.” (http://www.politics1.com/personalchoice04.htm)

		The burly Vietnam vet is a Peace and Freedom candidate who is challenging incumbent Valerie Brown in the 7th Assembly District race.

		Lynn Woolsey, D-Petaluma, recognizes the potential for the Peace and Freedom Party to act as a spoiler, especially since Peace and Freedom candidate Darlene Comingore siphoned 15 percent of the liberal vote in 1990, helping to lead to the defeat of Democratic incumbent Rep. Doug Bosco by then neophyte Republican Frank Riggs.
