Free State Project activists have eye on Idaho

Again, or still?

FSP has had their eye on Idaho as long as I can remember, and they still have only 3,000 people willing to move.
They'll "pick a state" when they're at 5,000? That ought to be well into the next millinium.

Seeing as how the Free State Project began around September 2001, and had 2500 members 72 weeks later, then 3000 at week 78, 6 weeks after that, and now rosters 3500 members pledged to make the move to the chosen goal state at week 84, six weeks and 500 members more later, it looks as if it may be just a little sooner than you estimate.

If the addition of around 500 new pledges every 6 weeks continues at the same rate, they'll have around 4000 about June 30th, 4500 circa 15 August, and the 5000 [at which point the vote for deciding *which state* is to be made] by the end of September...though if the rate of increased membership also continues to climb as more publicity and a growing disillusionment with Republican policies grows, the numbers will increase even sooner, particularly as returning service personnel come home and join in.

Watch and see....

Mid-May: Signed members as of 5-14-2003: 3,682

Mid-April: 3000+..., Mid-May: 3500+.... Let us see if Mid-June offers a total of 4000 or more pledged and signed porcupines, or thereabouts. True, there may be some dropoff over the Summer months. But then too, the Montana conference over Memorial Day may offer additional velocity to the effort. We'll see.

But either way, here comes that new *millinium* you mentioned, a little ahead of schedule!

Looks like it'll be a little sooner than that. Porcupines, get ready to pick your choice and vote. It's almost time....
