The Green Party ran 313 candidates last year, and enters 2013 with 133 Greens serving in office, 20 of them in partisan positions.

No single individual has done more to track Green Party elected officials and Green Party candidates nationwide than former Green Party Executive Director Brent McMillan. Brent has compiled the following 2012 Election Wrap up, which includes a summary of current Elected Greens.

2012 Green Party Election Wrap-up by the numbers

1/6/2013

by Brent McMillan

313 green party candidates ran for election in 2012. By comparison 308 green party candidates ran for election in 2008, 437 green party candidates ran for election in 2004 and 282 green party candidates ran for election in 2000, the presidential election years.

Three out of four offices that greens ran for in 2012 were partisan, by my count, 235.

45 greens were elected to office in 2012, 14% of those who ran. Of those Greens won 50% of the non-partisan offices that they ran for and only 3% of the partisan.

Twenty of the 45, less that half, were incumbents seeking re-election.

Six of the wins were partisan:

Alvin Clay was elected to Mississippi County Justice of the Peace, District 6, AR.

Kade Holliday was elected to Craighead County Clerk, AR.

Fred Smith was elected to State Representative District 50, AR.

Roger Watkins was elected to Craighead County Constable District 6, AR.
