There was a press release delivered to my inbox saying that the Greens nominated four candidates, and that they are up to 62 confirmed candidates.
What’s more impressive is that they’ve taken a cue from the BC Liberals’ candidate page and are putting high-resolution photographs of their candidates online for easy access.
This may seem like a trivial step, but it enables newspapers and magazines, if they so desire, to put a picture of the candidate up in an article, at a resolution that won’t blur on the printed product.
This is something the NDP has not done yet.
The Green Party has made a dramatic turnaround in their online presence – they have cleaned up their website (which was a complete disaster half a year ago), got their leader on the front page, drastically improved the picture of Jane Sterk, got rid of those horrible Youtube videos of her from the Green site, clearly announcing candidates and putting up their contact information, etc. Somebody did a good job with their site.
I agree, nice site. I hope they run someone decent in Coquitlam-Maillardville. Hurry up, Greens, I want to know.
