  • Application for Accreditation of the Kentucky Green Party As a State Chapter
    Application for Accreditation of the Kentucky Green Party as a State Chapter Dear Accreditation Committee (c/o Tamar Yager), Thank you for your help so far in our accreditation process. Here is our updated application to become a state chapter. Our approved bylaws are attached. Criteria for State Party Membership in the Green Party of the United States: 1. Acceptance of the four pillars of the international Green Party movement [ecological wisdom, social justice, grassroots democracy, non-violence] or the Ten Key Values as guiding principles. We accept these pillars and key values, as shown by our incorporation of them in Article 1 of our bylaws, which begins as follows: 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of the Kentucky Green Party (Party) is to transform Kentucky's political and economic systems in ways that move the Commonwealth closer to the realization of our ten key values, which are as follows: 1.1 Grassroots Democracy Every human being deserves a say in the decisions that affect his or her life..." 2. Organized and run in accordance with these values. So far, we have operated in a way that is consistent with the values. We believe that the rest of the provisions of the bylaws show we are committed to continuing to do so. 3. A statewide organization open to, and reflective of, a statewide membership. In the process of organizing to this point, we have been focusing most of our attention on contacting Kentuckians in all parts of the state who are in agreement with the key values expressed in the GP platform.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................
