Hi. We are up to 208 signers now. To make it easy to tell people, here's a shorter link to the petition: tinyurl.com/Boulderpet (for Boulder petition).

There's lots of parking in the rear off the alley North of Spruce. Potluck starts at 6 and I speak at 7. Here's what I'll be speaking about: 1. How I got started promoting direct democracy, how our 1993 Boulder Voting by Phone ballot initiative was defeated, and some of what I've learned since: http://spryeye.blogspot.com/2017/12/why-i-quest-for-direct-democracy-what-i.html 2. The city elections working group that, recently unanimously recommended allowing online petitioning for City ballot initiatives. City Council is holding a hearing, probably July 17th about this and other ballot measures for this November, so sooner is better. Here's our petition to get them to put it on the ballot, with lots of political and technical detail: https://www.change.org/p/boulder-city-council-allow-online-petitioning-for-ballot-initiatives 3. My work with Jared Polis to find out why Congress has never called a convention to propose amendments under Article V of the Constitution. Here's a speech I gave to the League of Women Voters and Wolf PAC Representatives in January about that and why implementing National ballot initiatives is the most important Amendment. My introduction starts 12:30 in, after the Wolf PAC speakers: https://m.facebook.com/groups/occupyarticleV/permalink/1594725543944128/ There's lots of time for questions. Hope to see some new (and old) folks there.
