SALT LAKE CITY, March 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --The Justice Party ( www.justiceparty.us ), has announced its new plan to vigorously recruit supporters, generate the formation of state parties, and become a "big tent," diverse majority national party to effectively challenge the money-corrupted duopoly of the Republican and Democratic parties.
In 2011, the Justice Party nominated Rocky Anderson, a civil rights lawyer, former Mayor of Salt Lake City (20002008), and 1996 Democratic Congressional candidate ( www.rockyanderson.org ), as the Party's 2012 presidential nominee.
The Justice Party plans to grow into a diverse majority political party, drawing independent voters, dissatisfied present and former members of the Republican and Democratic parties, and members of third parties that consistently fail to garner meaningful electoral support.
In such cases, the Justice Party will continue to vigorously run in "safe states" where the result is substantially certain, to build the Party long-term and to aggressively advocate for justice-promoting measures.
