Campaign Trail - Updates & News

Read about the current activities, the activites of last week and the details of the previous weeks! - it's not my vote, its yours!

Weekend starting Friday March 12th – I just finished a video about an innovative and cost effective way for U.S. Senate representation to have communication with their constituents. The video can be found on the “Links & Updates” tab to your left under NAAC. I printed about 1000 doorhanger flyers and shoveled much snow… I also turned down a request to participate in a candidate debate at the Valley Auto Mall located 7733 Eastgate Rd, Henderson, Nevada. The sponsors “are asking each candidate to contribute a minimum of $200 (due at the time of RSVP).” I rejected the request by Joann Spair and Ruth B. White, Co-founders of a website and some other debate committees, with the reply “I care not to participate in what caused the many problems with our government – no cash equals no voice. I hope that the other candidates can provide you the needed funds as they seem to have huge bags of silver to trade for publicity. I do not have any silver to trade for truth.” It is interesting that their website speaks of the candidates left out in the cold by our system, as their email speaks contrary? I usually don’t list the silliness of emails and/or invitations on this update, but it speaks of the error of our system… Think – Stand Up – Speak

Last Week

Weekend starting Friday March 5th – I dropped into Carson City to file for candidacy with the office of the Nevada Secretary of State, by signing paperwork and giving them $500 cash. The total round trip was 721 miles and we had great weather. We passed out informational flyers in Reno and had lunch, a calzone, at Pirates Pizza on 180 West Peckham Lane #1100. It was absolutely the best calzone I have ever eaten. We stayed in Battle Mountain our last night of the trail and passed out information flyers there as well. The trip concluded with knowledge that the name “Jesse Holland” will be on the ballot and that people from the beginning of the trip to the end were receptive to an alternative approach to our failing system. - NonPartisan

Friday February 26^th – I completed a video on campaign spending which is included on the “Links & Updates” tab directly to your left. I held a campaign meeting with my small group of unpaid, Christian and most loving friends to determine our future exercises. We prayed much and continue to seek guidance from God to keep us standing strong for Nevada and ultimately America.

February 19^thweekend, I completed some personal security groundwork, researched the massive money owed by our grandchildren under the cloak of IOUs issued on our behalf by the United States Government, and worked conscientiously on my “Nevada Matters” webpage (which I hope to post very shortly.) I also worked on campaign flyers and checked on some federal regulations.

February 12^th, the Elko County Clerk alerted us of our success. We have cleared the ‘250 signatures needed’ without problem.

I have scheduled an appointment in Carson City to sign the paperwork and hand over some cash (as required by law.)

I have been granted access to the ballot. After my appointment with the Secretary of State in Carson City, my name will be issued to each county for the November 2010 election. Please remember that the name “Jesse Holland” merely stands as the conduit for our forthcoming voice.

February 2, 2010, I received a letter from the State of Nevada Office of the Secretary of State. This letter requests the Elko Country Clerk, 571 Idaho St. 3^rd Floor, Elko Nevada to certify and conclude the results of the petition “no later than 5 p.m., on Tuesday, February 16, 2010.

Again, I am predicting success with great hopes to “LET OUR VOICE BE HEARD.”

Just Waiting… I formally delivered the needed signatures and am waiting for a validating response from the State of Nevada giving us the ‘GREEN’ light to explode into full campaign mode.

We turned in 407 signatures for a completion of just over 160% of the required 250. The validation process should begin in the very near future. The signature verification is to be completed within 9 business days after the Elko County Clerk/Registrar receives notification from the Secretary of State to begin validation. In my case, each signature must be from a ‘registered voter’ within Elko County.

I would like to thank each of you that signed the petition granting me access to the ballot this November 2010. WOW – possibly another choice! I am predicting success and am currently exploring creative ways to “LET OUR VOICE BE HEARD.”

The weekend starting January 29^th,we finished the last stage of the signature drive. As I will not participate in a Party Primary, we are required by law to obtain signatures of registered voters to gain access to the Ballot this November.

We are planning to gather the signed documents and submit them to our local court house in Elko this coming weekend. Then, the wait for verification begins…

Friday January 22^nd, we conducted a follow-up Petition Signing Event at Khoury’s Market in Spring Creek Nevada from 8:00A.M. – 12:00 PM (Noon.)

This petition simply allows me access to the ballot. Your signature does not change your affiliation or your support of a party or recognition by a party.

And… it was a success!

Saturday the 16^th of January, we had a Petition Signing Event at the Shilo Inn in Elko Nevada at 12:30P.M. – 3:30P.M. The event included an address from Jesse Holland and Questions with real Answers. Although the event did not conclude with the needed number of signatures for access to the November ballot, the event was a success for interaction, comments and answers.

January 1^st 2010 Weekend, we (my lovely wife and I) traveled 682.6 Miles from Spring Creek to Carson City. We stopped and talked with many people along the way. We handed out Senate business cards, flyers, door hangers and posted much information about this candidacy.

I enjoyed playing drums with the live band at the First Baptist Church in Fernley. The church leaders and congregation were warm and receptive. …and thanks for lunch Curtis Fulenwider!

I must say that TJ’s Pizza Shack makes a marvelous pizza. Tee was receptive and gave me valuable information about people and politics. It is good to hear from people that care about Nevada and our Nation.

Christmas weekend, I finished two more videos and posted them to YOUTUBE! They are a must see and can be easily found by going to my “Links & Updates” navigation tab.
