Libertarians Seem to Retain North Carolina Ballot Access

November 4th, 2008

For the first time in its history, the North Carolina Libertarian Party seems to have polled enough votes to remain on the ballot. With 41% of the North Carolina vote counted, the Libertarian gubernatorial candidate, Mike Munger, has 2.81% of the vote. Either he, or Bob Barr, needs 2% for the party to remain on the ballot for the next four years.

    Four of the statewide LP candidates are at 3%, governor, lt-governor, US senate, and commissioner of insurance. The fifth, Bob Barr for president, is at 1%.

    Thank you to all the North Carolina (and other) Libertarians who worked hard, and donated their time and money to make this possible.

    And a big thank you to the Candidates!

    Yes, Mike Munger succeeded in retaining ballot access for NC Libertarians. (Don’t stop talking about us, Richard!)

    Even better, Dr. Munger has announced that he will run for governor again in 2012.
