<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/20706/20121022/green-party-denounces-hassig-after-farmworker-statement</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 22, 2012) North Country Green Party candidate Donald Hassig says he left a profane voice mail message over the weekend on the answering machine of a woman who serves as one of his party&apos;s top state officials.In an email statement sent to North Country Public Radio, Hassig says he called party co-chair Gloria Mattera &quot;an American elitist bitch.&quot; This after the party issued a statement Friday calling Hassig&apos;s statements about &quot;Mexican&quot; workers &quot;disturbing and reprehensible&quot;, and saying although he&apos;s petitioned for the Green Party line on November&apos;s ballots, &quot;we do not consider him a Green candidate.&quot;Hassig is running for a House seat in the North Country&apos;s 21st congressional district.The message follows an ugly blow-up within the Green Party that began last Thursday, when Hassig argued at a candidate forum in Wanakena that immigrants working on North Country dairy farms should be rounded up and deported.
