Contested deletion edit

This article should not be speedy deleted as having no substantive content, because I have just started it and plan to make it similar to the 2012 page, which I have created. --LoganZombieOfTime (talk) 20:18, 12 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

In need of a lot of work edit

I am trying my best to fill in the gaps, but there are a heck of a lot of gaps in this article. It is near-impossible to find certain pieces of information. Perhaps I'll try getting in-touch with the Green Party itself to see what information they'd be able to provide me with for research, but besides that it seems it's a near-impossible task to bring this article up to quality standards.SecretName101 (talk) 08:43, 25 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

I will work on further revisions when I have more time (hopefully in the coming week). Sources (reputable or circumspect/less-than-deal) are hard to come by. Here are some articles I came across

It appears that the Pennsylvania Greens selected their delegates during a convention: http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/05/27/pa-greens-hold-convention-go-for-mckinney-by-53/

Here is some info about a debate they held: http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/06/18/green-party-podcast-debate-this-saturday/

Here is an article that appears to discuss the delegate-race (not primaries). Appears to be discussing unbound delegates. Not sure it's going to be helpful to this article: http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/06/08/nm-and-nyc-results-are-in/

Nebraska selected their delegates at a convention, but not sure whether or not they were required to commit to a candidate or not. http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/05/30/montana-green-party-state-convention-may-31/
