Libertarian Candidates Emerge
...from a report by Alwin Hopfman, State Committee Political Facilitator
State Legislative candidates
We have four more-or-less Libertarian candidates running for State Representative, which is a recent record.
State Committee member Jon Loya of Holliston is running for State Representative in the Eighth Middlesex District. The District is Holliston, Hopkinton, and parts of Medway, Westborough, and Southborough. His web site is electjonloya.com
State Committee member Bob Underwood of Springfield is running for State Representative in the Ninth Hampden District. He is running on the Liberty line. His web site is electbobunderwood.com.
Robert Walsh III of Lynn is running for State Representative in an Essex District. He is a member of the Constitution Party and is attempting to get on the ballot on the Libertarian line as a write-in/sticker candidate. He has no web site.
Chuck Kuniewich of Hudson is running for State Representative in the Third Middlesex district, which includes Bolton, Hudson, Maynard, and Stow. He is running as an independent, with web site votechuckk.com. His contact with our movement is through support for the Committee for Small Government, the Sales Tax Rollback effort. His message is: Government should be effective & efficient, fiscally frugal not foolish.
Federal candidates
We have four more-or-less libertarian candidates for U.S. Congress, an all-time record.
In the 10th District, Plymouth and Cape Cod, LAMA Member Jim Seal is working to get on the ballot. He is registered Unenrolled and will apparently be running on the Liberty line. Last month, Jim organized a meetup event; his web site is not yet up.
In the Third District (Worcester down to Fall River) Patrick Barron of Worcester is running as an independent. You can see his web site at BarronForCongress.org.
In the Fifth District (northwestern Middlesex County up to the NH border) two very different independent/libertarian candidates are running. Dale Brown of North Chelmsford is planning on running on the Liberty line. You can see his web site at brownsview.us. Bob Clark of Berlin is running as an Independent; you can see his web site at BobClarkForCongress.com.
Most of the above candidates contacted us by one means or another and have spent significant amounts of their own time and money pursuing their campaign. |
