Libertarian Candidates Speak at Logan County Tea Party Meeting

Logan County Tea Partiers meet at Ohio Hi-Point (audio included)

08/26/2010

Independent and third-party candidates took center stage Thursday night inside the Ohio Hi-Point Career Center when Logan County Tea Partiers, the Top of Ohio Patriots, gathered for their regular meeting.

A trio of candidates spoke during Thursday’s meeting, all of whom representing a political party outside the mainstream. Matt Cantrell, the Libertarian candidate for State Treasurer, was joined by Dr. Michael Pryce, an independent non-partisan candidate for the office of state senator and Charlie Earl, the Libertarian candidate for Secretary of State.

All three candidates railed against the policies of the current administration, both at the state and federal levels.

“I don’t want to run for office,” Cantrell said. “I’m not a career politician and I hate politics, but I’ve been left without a choice when I stop and consider where the current path of our country is leading.”

Cantrell is particularly concerned about the massive deficit spending, “we’re literally on track to go bankrupt as a nation,” he added.

As Secretary of State, Earl would have little to do with the creation of the budget and even less to do with the creation of laws; he would, however, aggressively fight voter fraud stemming from general elections.

“If we can prove voter fraud occurred, you can bet we’ll be persecuting it to the fullest extent of the law,” he said, “the days of the good ‘ol boy network are over…I’m here to make sure everyone plays by the same rules.”

OHIO TEA PARTY PAC ENDORSES BILL YARBROUGH IN OHIO'S THIRD SENATE DISTRICT

The Ohio Tea Party PAC announced its endorsement of Libertarian Bill Yarbrough in Ohio's 3rd Senate District race.

The Ohio Tea Party PAC represents the interests of independent grass-roots groups across the state - including tea party, 9-12, and other liberty-minded organizations.
Says Yarbrough, "I am honored to represent Ohio's liberty groups in the race for State Senate. The liberty movement in Ohio is diverse, but the issues of limited government, fiscal responsibility, and free markets unite us all."

LPO Tuesday Talk: What Does Liberty Mean to You?

Dear Friend of Liberty,

Liberty is the natural state of humankind, yet true liberty must be won, re-won and won time and again. If people become negligent, lethargic or indifferent, then liberty becomes a mere memory as we move about like clones in a statist world. Liberty is the element that allows each of us to express and exhibit our unique qualities. Liberty is the source of color in the fabric of our lives.

LPO Polls

For Ohio, should alternative party (3rd party/minor party) candidates be included in debates with the major parties?

	Yes, if the candidate is running an actual campaign, and is polling at least 5% in the polls.
	Yes, if the candidate is running an actual campaign, and is polling at least 10% in the polls.
	Yes, if the candidate is running an actual campaign, and is polling at least 15% in the polls.
	Yes, always with no exception. Organizations sponsoring debates should be forced to include them.
	If sponsored by the government or League of Women Voters, all candidates should be included, regardless of polling.
	If a private group is sponsoring the debate, it's their call. They can do what they want.
	No, it's a waste of time to include minor parties.
