	SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Politics -- Mayoral fight echoes a case in Bay Area
		Baum's futile effort to get 229 write-in votes counted for her in a primary election bears a striking similarity to the San Diego race and Frye's campaign.
		The court records in Baum's case also indicate how difficult it might be for Frye to prevail in an expected court challenge of her own to get 5,547 ballots for her counted.
		Baum decided to run in the March primary in order to get on the November ballot and challenge Democrat Nancy Pelosi, who is the minority leader of the House of Representatives and represents the 8th Congressional District.

		Terry Baum - first "write-in" candidate to qualify for general election ballot since 1968.
		Terry Baum will be running for Congress against Democrat Nancy Pelosi on the Green Party ballot line - after waging California’s first successful “write-in” campaign in the last thirty years.
		It shows both the depth of dissatisfaction with Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic Party’s support for the war in Iraq (Baum’s primary focus is opposition to the war in Iraq - her slogan is “Baum for Peace”), and the growing strength of the Green Party at the grassroots.

	State Green Party Press Release
		If Baum wins, the city may have to reprint hundreds of thousands of ballots to include Baum as a candidate in the 8th District (San Francisco), currently held by House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi.
		Baum filed a her writ after local and state courts, including the California Supreme Court, turned down requests to count hundreds of write-in votes - with Terry Baum's clearly written on them - from last March's primary.

	Review: A Quixotic quest along campaign trail becomes just the ticket for laughs - January 8, 2006
		Terry Baum hadn’t a prayer in her quixotic run last year, even in San Francisco.
		Baum was inspired to run for Congress when Rep. Nancy Pelosi, representing the district that includes most of San Francisco, backed the invasion of Iraq and failed to come out strongly for a flurry of Bay Area same-sex marriages.
		This leads to moments in which we’re mildly astonished that the world is the way it is (why are some liberals troubled by gay marriage?), and moments in which we’re struck by Baum’s naiveté (did she really think they were going to make it easy for her?).
