North Siders to send 25 Nader votes to Indiana for Gore votes

Friday, November 03, 2000

By Eve Modzelewski, Post-Gazette Staff Writer

California may say it's illegal, but there's nothing in Pennsylvania statutes that
prohibits vote-swapping, which is good news for members of the Unitarian
Universalist Church on the North Side.

Twenty-five Ralph Nader supporters at the church plan to trade their votes
with Al Gore supporters from a church in Indiana, a state George W. Bush is
predicted to carry with ease. That way, the Green Party still gets votes
toward the 5 percent needed to receive campaign funds in future elections,
and Gore backers in Indiana get their votes cast in a state where they could
actually make a difference.

"I was one of those people who was really torn, but I didn't feel like I could
vote for Nader in a swing state like Pennsylvania," said Kate Patterson Neely.
"When I found out a way to get around it, I jumped on board."
