The Green Party of Pima County (GPPC) is the official county chapter of the Arizona Green Party and the Green Party of the United States, Our primary mission is to get Green Party members elected to local, state, and national office. We also work to reform the electoral system, increase grassroots participation in government decision making, develop cooperative leadership models, and ensure that Green politicians remain accountable to those who place them in office.
Party Objectives
Achieve State-wide Ballot Status
Although the Green Party currently has ballot status in
Pima County, we still need state-wide ballot status in
Arizona to run candidates for the state legislator. Sign our
petition for temporary ballot status. Register
Green Party to make our ballot status permanent.

Register more Greens in Arizona
To ensure permanent ballot status, more Arizona residents
need to register as Green Party. Remember: More Green
registrations means more choices on election day! Online
registration is available at https://az.gov/webapp/evoter/.

Elect Greens to State and Local Offices
In Pima County, more than 23,000 people voted Green for
Country Attorney in November 2004. More recently in 2007,
our candidates for Mayor and City Council of Tucson received
28% and 27% of the vote. All fine showings for a new up and
coming political party. We need more candidates
to build on this success.
