Ron Paul Easily Wins Re-Nomination

Congressman Ron Paul of Texas, the only member of Congress who has been willing to introduce legislation outlawing restrictive ballot access laws in the past 10 years, was easily re-nominated in the Republican primary on March 7. He polled 77.7% of the vote; his opponent, Cynthia Sinatra (daughter-in-law of the famous singer) got 22.3%. Sinatra based her campaign on support for President Bush’s Iraq policy, which Paul opposes. Paul is 70 and was the Libertarian Party nominee for president in 1988.
