    A small correction on Alabama – the contract is with Ross Lowe (Alabama LP state party treasurer and local petitioner with experience from the 1980s and from last year collecting signatures in Jefferson County paid for by Booster PAC) .

    I am one of several subcontractors who is planning to work for Ross Lowe on this petition drive. If my participation on this drive and on LNC at the same time is going to be much of an issue, I can either cancel my plans to be one of the subcontractors working for Ross Lowe or I can resign from the LNC.

    My estimate on the state legislative seats that this will give us access for was 10-20, but I actually forgot to figure in the State Senate with that calculation when I talked to Bill about on the phone. I think 20 is closer to the mark, maybe even slightly more.

    With all county commission seats in 6 counties, multiple county executive positions in each of the counties, and judicial positions in all of the counties it could be as many as a hundred candidates, which is not to say LPA will recruit that many.

    I am in the process of seeking statewide candidates with the financial resources to fund the remaining 61 counties.

    Yes, it can be emphasized enough. Unfortunately, we can’t afford the cost of the blimp. đŸ™‚

    Seriously…his dedication to ballot access and his decades of work have been instrumental in getting the LP as far as it has come. We need candidates, but without the many people like Bill and the petitioners who work behind the scenes to keep ballot access many candidates wouldn’t be able to run.

    It cannot be emphasized enough what a tremendous asset Bill is to the Libertarian Party.
