 Dear All,
 
 The good news is that we are still on track to have our
 Presidential
 candidate on all 50 state ballots and the District of
 Columbia.  The
 bad news is that it cost more than we had anticipated at our
 July
 meeting.  At that meeting the Ballot Access budget was
 increased to
 $340,000.  We have presently spent approximately
 $381,000 on ballot
 access, which exceeds our budgetary authority as well as the
 10%
 overage allowed by the policy manual.
 
 There are petitioners who are working at present in
 Kentucky, which is
 the last state with an active petition drive.  It is my
 intent to
 continue to pay the petitioners while this email ballot is
 pending.
 My apologies for not requesting this budget increase
 earlier, things
 moved very quickly with NY/OH/CT/NH/DC all going at the same
 time.
 
 I would like to request an email ballot for a motion to
 increase the
 ballot access budget to $390,000.
 
 Yours truly,
 Nick
