On April 21, the Virginia Libertarian Party held a nominating convention and chose Rob Sarvis for Governor. He already has about 4,000 signatures but needs 10,000 valid by mid-June.
If he gets on the ballot, he will be only the second Libertarian ever on the Virginia ballot for Governor. The first was Bill Redpath, in 2001. UPDATE: here is more information about Sarvis, from Uncovered Politics.
He’s got my vote if he gets on the ballot!
Does this count as my signature? If not, where do I go?
Dave – Where are you, geographically?
Speaking of Libertarian Party of Virginia candidates in this years elections, I just today read the following in the latest LP News, March 2013 newspaper:
“Chuck Moulton, Chair of the Virginia LP, said, “Virginia is actively recruiting candidates for the House of Delegates. We plan to run a record number of candidates in 2013.”
It is also noted in the article, “State Election Hotspots in 2013: New Jersey and Virginia” that “Virginia will elect a governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general and delegates to the House of Delegates (the lower house).”
I’m so excited that Rob received the nomination and that LPVA will have a gubernatorial candidate this year.
If we can make it onto the ballot, he’s got my vote!
No compromise on Liberty
