On May 30, the Libertarian Party national convention elected Mark Hinkle as the new national chair. He replaces Bill Redpath, who has been chair for the past two terms.
Mark Rutherford is the new vice-chair; Alicia Mattson is the new secretary; James Oaksun is the new treasurer.
I guess this was a slap in the face for Wayne Allyn Root. Wonder what he will do now?
Wayne Root is now running for national committee at large.
I don’t see it as a slap in the face to Wayne. I see it as the delegates saying that we are going to define what we are for ourselves, not let a newbie who doesn’t necessarily reflect the rank-and-file membership define what we are.
Glad to have you on board, just get out from behind the steering wheel.
And congratulations, Mark! He was far from the front-runner coming in, but ended up winning the Chairmanship. Nice work.
So does California want to be the face of the party now?
