FCLPO Candidate Endorsement Meeting
2024-08-08 20:00 | The Pub Out Back, 679 High Street, Worthington, 43085, United States
Special Meeting Announcement
The Executive Committee of the Franklin County Libertarian Party of Ohio will be hosting a special meeting to discuss and endorse Libertarian candidates for the 2024 General Election.
The following candidates have been certified by the Franklin County Board of Elections to appear on the ballot in November:
Brandy Seymour – State Representative for District 9
Eric Terford – State Representative for District 2
Drake Lundstrom – County Treasurer
Candidate endorsements from a county political party hold significant importance in elections. These endorsements serve as a signal to voters about the candidate’s alignment with party values and policies. Trust in the party often translates to trust in the endorsed candidate, providing credibility and legitimacy. Endorsements can also lead to increased campaign support, including financial contributions, volunteer efforts, and access to party resources. Media attention and public visibility tend to rise with such endorsements, amplifying the candidate’s message. Additionally, endorsements mobilize the party’s base, ensuring a more robust voter turnout in favor of the endorsed candidate.

About Participatory Budgeting

Originally developed in Porto Alegre, Brazil, participatory budgeting is a mechanism to directly involve the community in the budgeting of their tax dollars, now found in many communities worldwide.

Currently adopted by the City of Burnsville, MN and under active exploration by the City of Minneapolis, MN, the concept provides residents and property owners a method to direct a portion of municipal budget.

“Under plan, Burnsville property owners would be able to choose where some tax dollars go…

From the Star Tribune “Under plan, Burnsville property owners would be able to choose where some tax dollars go

The city is working to implement “participatory budgeting,” which allows residents to vote on spending for some public projects.

From the City of Burnsville “Originally developed in Porto Alegre, Brazil, participatory budgeting is a mechanism to directly involve the community in the budgeting of their tax dollars, now found in many communities worldwide. City Council is currently exploring participatory budgeting and you are invited to be a part of the conversation.” https://www.burnsvillemn.gov/participatorybudgeting

From the City of Minneapolis “Participatory budgeting is a set of practices and methodologies to increase democracy in budgeting. Elements of participatory budgeting are currently used by thousands of local governments, public agencies, and other organizations around the world. Participatory budgeting has the potential to increase civic participation by marginalized residents and communities, build relationships, strengthen government credibility, and increase investment in innovative projects. There is an opportunity to integrate participatory budgeting practices into the Minneapolis budget process as the city shifts to a biannual budget and the Council reviews and revises the Budget Committee workplan.” https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/RCA/11780
