Notetaker: Amy
2. Minutes from last meeting: Minutes from both October 10 and
this meeting (Oct 24) will be approved at the next meeting.
3. CC Structure and Operations
Election
night preparations: There still seems to be some confusion about
what the mentors should be asking the state associates to prepare
for. Rob gave an update on the state associates that he contacted.
Amy will send out an email outlining again what needs to be asked:
whether the listing on www.gp.org is correct, to make sure the
associate will email results (number and %) of the elections, and
the urls for any websites they use to get the information. Gray
suggested that we need to make sure that the states that need to
have the password (MI and ME) get it. That needs to happen right
away.
Post
Election Strategy: Brent put together draft letters that will be
sent to all the green candidates after the election. Amy and Brent
will update these letters and send out the final draft. For those
candidates who won, the letter may include some information about
the Green Office Holders Network. The CCC will review these at the
next meeting, with the plan to send them out soon after. Gray
suggested to double check with the fundraising and finance
committees to make sure this is coordinated and that candidate
don't receive lots of mailings from the national party.
Great
Lakes Call: Jen and Amy are planning the call for Tuesday,
November 9 at 8 pm (central). More details will be sent out this
week. All CCC members are welcome to be on the call.

Committee liaison: Brent talked to Jane earlier this week about
help needed for election coverage. She, as well as others, needs
to be active on election night and a few days after, to help get
the results out. Brent will have the info and data, but he wants
some help to put together some write-ups and releases.
