Elect

John "Green" Fortuin

to U.S. Senate

Elect Georgia Green Party Nominee John "Green" Fortuin to U.S. Senate
Elect Georgia Green Party Nominee John "Green" Fortuin to U.S. Senate

John has been fighting for your Human Rights, Constitutional Rights, and Economic Rights since the 1990's, with groups fighting for the environment, fair trade, and fair / auditable elections based on paper ballots.

John supports implementing a REAL Green New Deal to achieve a net-zero carbon economy in 5 years, with a WWII-style economic transformation to make that goal possible.

Voting Info as of 10/28/20:

Absentee Ballots:

If you have already requested an absentee ballot;

Georgia's registered voters who have applied for an absentee ballot already, should follow the directions carefully on the instructions, double checking each step in the directions, then turn in your absentee ballot to your county elections office or county approved drop boxes as soon as possible in advance of election day.  Generally, handling other people's absentee ballots is criminal offense that will get you called before the State Election Board, stay safe and comply with the law.

All other voters:

While it is legally possible to request an absentee ballot this close to election day, I strongly advise against this, this election season.  I recommend early voting instead (due to COVID-19 induced election office chaos), or election day voting in your assigned precinct.

 

Vote for
Georgia Green Party nominee
John "Green" Fortuin!

Atlanta UBI Project Endorses John Fortuin for U.S. Senate (Georgia)

Atlanta UBI Project Endorsement!

I want to thank Florence and the entire Atlanta UBI (Universal Basic Income) Project supporters for this endorsement.  The brave and future-minded Atlanta UBI Project are looking forward towards a future where automation can co-exist with supporting American's basic human rights, and I welcome their support.  

From our Pandemic Platform:

Universal Basic Income (UBI) will guarantee every American a share in our nation’s enormous wealth, improve the quality of life for all Americans, and ensure that every American can afford basic food and shelter by paying a guaranteed minimum of $2080 per month for every adult, and $350 per month for every child, regardless of health, employment, or marital status. We have a moral obligation to our fellow Americans to make these payments permanent and adjusted each year for inflation. A permanent UBI, along with other economic reforms, would prevent us from having to take emergency actions, after people are already suffering, when we have future crises and would minimize government bureaucracy and intrusiveness into people’s lives, eliminating the nightmarish bureaucracy of the welfare “system”.
