I am the first openly gay candidate to run statewide in my homestate of
Arkansas. We have a chance in Arkansas to make history. I have been
working to put myself in a position to win the Lt. Governor's office.
During the NCCM conference last year, I heeded the call of my former boss,
the General (Wes Clark) and decided to run for Lt. Governor to provide my
state with a progressive voice of common sense in the Democratic Party
rather than being Republican lite.
I have championed the issues of harnessing technology as a source for a
new industry in our state. You can see my economic plan at my website. I
have focused on many issues besides GLBT Issues and they have placed me in
a winnable position.

have not, because they focus on incumbents or candidates with large war
chests. Yet in a crowded primary field and hard work, I have worked myself
to a position where I can win. I cannot invest another dime of my money
though in this campaign. I need to raise money.
>From late March to April 4th is the filing for office. To get on the
ballot in Arkansas, I need to raise $7500. I need to find 75 people to
donate $100 then I can get my name on the ballot easily. In addition, I
need to raise between $50,000 - $100,000 for television.
What I am asking is will you help me? What I need and ask is this :
1.) Donate $100 to help me get on the ballot?
2.) Help me raise the $7500? I am sure you might have some friends and I
am asking in all sincerity.
3.) After that, if you can help me raise the television money, I am so
appreciative.

Especially people who do not know me. Thats why I have really waited till
now to start raising money and invested the initial amount from my own
pocket.
